Anyone else with small babies?

Question

My LO had her 4 month shots today and she weighed 10.4lbs (born 7.7lbs). He is concerned about her weight and I was wondering if any breastfeeding mamas also have this "issue" because I think my baby is fine. The doctor said he is concerned because her dad is 6'2 and I'm 6' and she's on the small side. Here's my Layla 🐞

Answer

My daughter is small too (born 1/23). She still wears Her nb onesies! That striped one in the picture is 0-3 months and it's still very loose on her. Her appt is next week and I'm so anxious to get her official measurements and grill the dr about it.  Weighed at home and she was about 11.2lb on her 3 month birthday.
Did she lose a lot in the first week? Olivia was born 7lb6oz and dropped to 6lb9oz which was just over the "acceptable" range.
We EP now so I know exactly how much she's getting and I do find that helpful/reassuring.

Answer

Claire was 6lbs 2ozs at birth dropped 11% to 5lbs 9ozs and was 12lbs 11ozs at her 4 month appointment.  We supplemented with formulafor the first month until she was  back to birth weight and effectively latching and since then she has been exclusively breastfed

Brynn was 6lbs 3ozs at birth dropped 14% to 5lbs 7ozs and was 13lbs 8ozs at her 4 month. She was supplemented for the first few weeks but has mostly been exclusively breast fed

Answer

My little girl was born 8lb1oz on January 28.  A month ago she was 11lb9oz. I'm a little concerned because she's not staying on her curve (50th at 2m down to 37th at 2.5 m) but I will get her weight tomorrow and I'm hoping for the best

Answer

I'm worried about the same thing! 😖 My LO was 6.14 when we left the hospital. She is roughly 11.5 now. Her 4 month appt is next week, and I'm anxious to hear what the dr thinks.

Answer

My baby was 5lbs when we left the hospital and has been on the small side. She's 14th percentile for weight now, at 12.6lbs. Also EBF. I'd say as long as your baby is content and doesn't start to look too skinny you're fine lol...I mean pretty soon we all should be starting solids around 6 to 9 months and a lot of small babies catch up during that time

Answer

My little was 6.6oz, dropped to 5.13... breastfeeding mostly but 1 supplement bottle ofmy output is low... he's now up to 14 lbs at his 4 month
