Overfeeding? My son was born last month on the eleventh. He weighed 7 pounds 1 ounce at birth and…

I'm not sure if it's different between ff and bf baby's, but I've been ebf my lo since she was born. She weighed 8 pounds even at birth and was at 11 pounds at one month old I think, and I fed on demand, no schedule. Her pedi said she's healthy and normal. I don't think you can overfeed a newborn, that's why they spit up. If they are over full they just spit it up.

They're supposed to gain weight like that, your little one sounds perfect

My son was 8 pounds 12 ounces at birth. And at 5 days old he was already 9 pounds 3 oz. Now he's over 14 pounds at 6 weeks old. His doctor says he perfectly healthy, just a BIG boy. He said you can't overfeed a breastfed baby. Your baby sounds perfectly fine! He is gaining weight which is great ??

Generally you can't overfeed babies. Your little one is going to rapidly gain weight in the first few month and will gain weight pretty steadily for the first two years. Some kids, like my daughter grow a bit slower. She was barely 14 pounds at her one year appointment and she's gained ten more pounds and is two years old. Your child may gain faster than her. All babies gain different, just as all adults do. Unless the pedi is worried I would keep doing what you're doin.

I only breastfed my babies, they were born at 6lbs11oz and 6lbs13oz, and at one month old they weighed 11lbs2oz and 11lbs5oz. Perfectly healthy, just chubby EBF babies :)
