Is my son too skinny ? this is him on his side .. he’s EBF And 3 months he was 8 lbs 4 oz when born he still wears size newborn clothes

Question

Answer

My son was like that. He’s now 8 months and 14 pounds. Still fits into 0-3 clothes

Answer

As long as he's putting on any weight, he should be fine. Obviously see what the pediatrician says, but maybe he's just a petite boy 😊

Answer

He seems much more filled out than a newborn so I’m surprised he fits those clothes. Is he staying on his growth curve? My daughter has always been in 10-15% for weight and height. Ped was never concerned.

Answer

He looks good to me!

Answer

He looks fine, you could always try adding more fats and protein to your diet.

Answer

He looks fine to me. As long as he’s staying on his curve, hitting milestones, and eating regularly then I’d say you’re okay.

Answer

He looks fine to me.

Answer

Btw my pedi constantly tells me he has to gain weight to keep feeding him when he wants. We’re not on a schedule. If baby wants 6oz one feeding and then 8oz the next, he is encouraged to do so. His weight is a concern for my pedi but he honestly just seems to gain super slow. He’s very active, playful, happy and he loves to eat everything! But I’m not going to stress it anymore how I used to Bc as long as he’s healthy and happy, I’m happy

Answer

Some kids gain slower, my son was ebf and gained slowly. Then when he turned 1 he started packing on the weight and at almost 18 months hes almost 29 pounds.

Answer

How much does he weight now? Is his Pedi concerned ?
