I am really worried as he is not taking feeds. What to do. pls give a solution

Question

Accepted Answer

When baby’s are in growth spurt they do such things. Even my baby she turned 3 months today she just feeds for 10 mins but I don’t force feed her,  if she asks for milk again in 5-10-15 mins I feed her then. Please mumma try to keep yourself calm as your baby can read your vibes and gets more cranky. Try to distract him and feed again when he asks for again. Also try to feed in a calm and peaceful environment. Your baby is in growing phase so there is nothing to worry about and please don’t listen to anyone if they tell you your baby is over weight. He should be active and reaching his milestones.

Accepted Answer

There is nothing like over weight baby, please don’t worry about all these things. Your baby is on milk (breastfed/bottle feed) it’s all baby fat. If your baby is active, peeing well, pooping well, there is nothing to worry.

how to increase breast milk my baby is not drinking formula

Answer

Yes it is a little overweight but I am not aware about what was the birth weight of your child because a child can gain up to 1 kg kilogram in a month and that’s considered healthy if your child was born with 4 kg or more than that then this is quite justified and maybe your child is having its teeth that is why your child has become more cranking in terms of feeding
