    Well in England average weight for 12yo girl is about 130 pounds that equates to about 9 stone I would say she is under weight

    I'm 5'3 and way 99pounds and I'm a little underweight. so depending on height, weight and age you'll find out. why not do a BMI test. i have to have them done by a nurse because of my weight.

    Abnormal if she is 90 & weighs 12lbs. Normal if she is 12 & weighs 90lbs.

    90 lbs. Is about the normal weight for a kid 9 to 11 years old. I was not 90lbs as a kid. At 9 I was 185 lbs!! Lil round fat boy was my nickname from my math teacher!

    Oh. Was about to say it's normal for 3 x 12yr old girls combined to be 90kg then I realised you were chatting with Noah and Moses i.e. cubits, lbs, feet.

    For a 5 foot tall 12 year old girl, the healthy BMI range is 15 to 21. Her BMI is 17.6, in other words, she is healthy.

    Yes it's so normal! When I was a year younger, almost turning 12, I was almost 100 pounds! I was 99 pounds... I wasn't ashamed, I didn't look big or anything! She is perfectly fine!

      When I was that height, I was about 75 pounds, but I was basically at the lower limits of the healthy weight range. She's fine.

      I'm 5'3'' and I weigh 110 pounds and I'm at the lower end of healthy weight, so 90 pounds for 5' seems fine.

      I'm 5 feet 2 1/2 inches and 90 pounds on me is rather thin if not almost skeletal.

    One of my friends, who was a guy, weighed 90lbs and he was 16 at the time and 5'7. I don't know if weighing that is normal, but it sounds fine to me.
