I’ve had him checked by health visitor, dietitian and his neonatal consultant, he’s in the 98th percentile but from what they have said he should be drinking no more than 35oz a day and he’s only drinking say 39 to 42oz which is only one bottle extra a day all together from 7.30am to 9pm I was told to start weaning him which will take away a bottle but he’s really not ready yet 😔🤦♀️ . He has a dummy but very fussy I have to pop a tiny bit of gripe water in his mouth for him to keep dummy in . X
Ive also been told that He’s not a fat baby he’s just very well built larger baby . X
This came up on my feed though Im not in this group. They can feed like this to soothe their stomachs if they are hurting, I would definitely contact your HV or GP if he is rapidly gaining weight as thats a lot of formula. My baby is 9 months and 50th centile and in size 4+ nappies so I would definitely get that checked out. Will he take a dummy instead?
