Anyone have any tips on how to get my baby to gain weight. He’s as healthy as a horse, but I went in his room to check on him last night. He was sleeping in his side and his ribs were poking out. He’s formula fed, gets 3 bottles a day and very big meals in between each with some juice.

What does the Dr say about the weight

@newlyironman, says he’s at an okay weight but won’t be a bad thing if he gains

I wouldn't worry. If you're feeding him until he's satisfied and he's having healthy foods than he's okay.

I agree with not worrying. You can see my sons ribs as well our pedi isnt worried but like yours wouldn't ve worried if he gained to. I'm a tiny gal so our pedi thinks he'll be small like me as long as he's gaining don't worry

3 bottles a day doesn’t sound like enough for a 9 month old. Solids do not replace bottles. They are for developmental purposes at this point with very little to no nutritional purpose at that age. Although they are capable of eating, they do not have the digestive enzymes to break down, process and absorb the nutrients they need.

How many ounces are these bottles?
