How to get babe to eat more?

This was never a problem with my first baby lol he always was a tank 😂

I’m a little annoyed by the pediatrician we saw for her 4 month appointment, the doctor we normally see was busy that day. This woman we saw said my daughter is in the 23rd percentile for weight, 92nd percentile for height. She’s super long at 24 inches. Weighs 12lbs 5.5oz. She was 8lbs 10oz at birth and 22inches. She was in the 40 something percentile for weight at 2 months so she is below her curve but she seems like she’s growing fine to me but the woman we saw said I should “put her to breast more” or try giving formula so she gets more calories. Even said I could start cereal and foods. Thing is, she has a dairy and soy allergy and hates the formula her GI doctor prescribed. Also, when she’s done nursing, she’s DONE lol she’ll bite down on my nips or just play with my shirt. How exactly do you feed a baby more that isn’t hungry? Lol

I never started food with my first til 6 months, though I know it’s fine to start earlier. I just don’t really want to.

What are your thoughts?
