Anybody else have a slim breastfed baby? I'm starting to feel like my baby isn't eating enough. I see some babies that look like the Michelin tire man.

My itty bitty is a preemie so yes, he's skinny. Each baby grows differently. I wouldn't worry as long as baby's pediatrician is monitoring weight gain, baby is nursing frequently and having the right amount of wet diapers.

@kimberlyyyy You're right. Also, your baby is a premie so that's different.

Carter is slim and he's ebf and perfectly healthy. he's super tall for his height. also I know breastfed babies are usually slimmer cause they don't store as much because they use the energy from breastmilk. Carter is 28.5 inches tall and 18 pounds at 6 months.

@mommy2babyg That makes me feel better. I think it's my son's height. Also, he's so active.

plus looking at pictures of you, your husband and baby Oscar there's a huge chance he will never be chubby. all of you are pretty slender. and like you said he's super active too
