Lo's weight.
Anyone else's baby not follow the original growth curve they were on ? My LO went from 12 lbs 15 oz at 2 months to 14 lbs 13 oz at 4 months and one week... So he's no longer on the 50th percentile.. I just don't know what to do.. I feed him as much as he wants to feed- he's sleeping through the night but I even wake him to feed a couple times.. He's such a bad nurser during the day though, and now I'm questioning whether my milk supply is plummeting or not.. He's been having 3 naps a day now as well 45 min to 2 hours.. He has also had a week of a low grade fever due to teething I'm assuming and a tooth popped through yesterday... And he got his vaccinations yesterday so he now has a fever from that.. I'm stressed out :( he does have 4-5 wet diapers a day but only two are sopping wet (the first and 2nd of the day- generally because he feeds better when he's sleepy during the night). He has been irritable this week as well but I don't know if that's from teething or not... Blahh motherhood is hard

Mine went up from the 35th percentile to the 65th but he was early so I think he was catching up. His length also went from 10 - 90th. Was your doctor concerned?

She wasn't overly concerned and wants me to come back in 30 days. He was in the 50th percentile for his weight and now he's in the 28th percentile. He was in the 50th percentile for height and now he's in the 75th percentile. I'm just stressed out about it.. Breastfeeding is awful for knowing how much your baby is getting ?

Was he always in the 75 percentile for height or did that change too?

Maybe he just had a growth spurt and grew longer and now he needs to fill back out. I've noticed my LO looks thinner after he has grown longer and then he gets fat again lol. If your baby is sleeping that well it seems like he is satisfied and I wouldn't be too concerned.

Mine isn't. She was in the 60th at one of her first appts and she's dropped every appt since then. She's now in less than the 20th. They want me to bring her for weight checks. I'm not overly concerned. She's still gaining and hitting milestones on time. She's happy, active and very alert. She's also breastfed. I'd like if she was still gaining like she was but I'm not surprised. My son was always little.

@Mandarin.Orange yes it changed. He went from the 50 percentile to the 75th percentile for his length

@penneflower that's what I was thinking as well that maybe this month he'll bulk up again

@fruitymentoslove that's great that your babe is doing so well :) my little guy is still hitting milestones, the only thing that concerns me is that he's been so irritable throughout the day while awake- but again I'm not sure if it's because he's been teething
