Okay, how is it possible that my almost 1 month old can eat 6 ounces in one sitting??? That's like literally the size of…

@madibug96 I believe she's bigger than 98% of babies her age group! lol that's what someone told me.

You know how they say on average kids double their birth weight by 6 months? My first almost doubled it by 4! Some kids gain it quick as babies, and some gain slower. My son finally leveled out his gaining by 1 yr. Hope that helps 😊

remember every kid is different he maybe having a growth sport or he may end up being tall so go woth it if anything ask his doctor

@madibug96, thank you :)

its happened to me I have to remind myself that her doctor said it's fine for her to eat like that

@ngujen,

What's this 98th percentile cause no one ever explained that to me and the doctors/nurses never said crap about percentiles but obviously I know it's a thing, just not anything about it

@madibug96 my daughter's arms look like dinner rolls haha. she's always been in the 98th percentile though! If he's eating that much then, he probably will :) My friends baby was eating 6 Oz way before my daughter started 6 Oz and was still drinking 6 oz and they're 4 months apart. She just started gaining some weight!

She's too precious! @maddiesmommy022916 well at least I know the doctors can't tell me to feed him more lol

Yea my son doesn't have many rolls so maybe he'll put on some weight :/ @ngujen

my daughter is 3.5 months old and I can barely get her to eat 3 ounces every 4-4.5 hours most of time. every now and then she will eat 4 ounces but very rarely. doctor's get mad at me saying she needs to be eating 5-6 ounces every 4-5 hours but no matter how hard I try I can't get her to eat that much and I'm not going to force her. she is definitely gaining fine so why force her. she is actually my chunky baby girl.

my daughter gained weight super fast her first couple of months. her weight gain finally slowed down and she's growing into her rolls lol. she doesn't look as chubby as she use to.

@maxie, see I was fine with 4 cause that seemed to be the perfect amount. he'd eat and go straight to sleep after burping, but out of nowhere last night he needed 6 and I was so confused.

My daughter is 1 month drinking about 4 To about 5 and half at 2 weeks she was at 4 so I know the feeling

better be a damn good growth spurt! lol @mommagotbump16

@madibug96, I get that. Maybe he's just going through a growth spurt!

It's actually kind of worrying me cause I just am super paranoid about him being overweight in the future since neither my husband nor I know how that feels or how to deal with it (we got the lucky genes out of our family). @mommagotbump16

😲 No idea! My older son's belly would be huge after feedings for the longest time because he'd eat so much lol but idk how he managed it
