Overfeeding BF baby

[Hollywood]

Don't change a thing....sounds like it's all going PERFECT

DS was a healthy chubby(ish) little bubba, then once he started walking he slimmed down a bit and now he's perfectly healthy with just the right amount of weight on him.

I think it's good if they're a bit on the chubby side so that if they get sick they have fat reserves to help get them through the illness. Once they get more mobile they slim down a bit.

Keep up the great work

Sounds like you are doing a lovely job!! Both my boys were little porkers, DD1 was to start with, then slimmed down, and DD2 has been a teeny pettite thing from the start! All bubs are different, and if you ARE overfeeding, then chances are it will be puked back up rather promptly!

with what everyone else has said. Congratulate yourself and know this...i'm a little bit jealous, my girl has not been breaking the weight gain records I had hoped she would, but she's a perfect little BFed bub, just like your bub.

My boy was 3.5kg at birth & is now about 7kgs at 2&half months! He's BF too. I was a bit paranoid about him being overfed & also people's comments on his size but now realise how lucky I am to have a healthy baby that is gaining weight & know that once he's crawling & walking he'll slim down a bit. His thighs are double the size of babies his age from my mum's group!

Yay! Enjoy your chubby bubby

Think of it this way - breast milk is the most perfect food on earth - made by humans for humans, so its impossible to over feed, you're only adding more nourishment
