Hi and Welcome!
Poodle variety is ultimately reckoned by height, but that's a bit hard to get on wiggly puppies. My boys are mini's. All I could get on them was weight for quite a while.
Just for comparison, my bigger mini boy, Neo, was 6.1lbs at 13 weeks and 4 days. I never got a good shoulder height on him as a puppy but he's finished out around 14" at the shoulder, same from neck to tail, and about 14lbs.
At just over 16 weeks Neo was up to 8.8 lbs, still no height measurement.
At just over 7 months Neo was up to about 12 lbs and had slowed down in his growth.
It would be a few more months before he reached full physical maturity but by 7 months he'd reached most of his height, length, and weight.
Remember though, there are NO weight restrictions on poodles only height so really weight doesnt have a lot to do with the poodle.Toys are 10 inches in height and under. Miniatures are over 10 inches to 15 inches. Standards are over 15 inches. This by the breed standards for both AKC and UKC. NOTE: A poodles height is measured from the ground up to the top of the withers (shoulder blades).
