Isn't it funny how fashions change? In the 50s a baby was only considered healthy if they were 'bouncing' with huge, chubby pink cheeks and a pot belly!
All children are different, even gender plays a part. The amount of body fat in children varies by age. I saw somewhere that if your child is heavier than 85-95% of children the same age, gender and height, then that child is considered to be overweight.
If a child has a good appetite but doesn't get the chance to burn off calories then, of course, obesity will inevitably result.
