My 2nd daughter is 3 months.(i did not have this issue with my first) at her 2 mo check up she was 13.5 lbs. the dr says she is overweight. i need to cut down whether it be less fliud more often or vise versa. Well-I am sorry to say but if my daughter is hungry and nothing else will satisfy her (rocking, holding, pacifer...) I am going to feed her I am not going to let her go hungry. even if it means she is a pound or two overweight. She is tall. not a fat baby. She was term-on her due date 9/8/09 and 7lb. 8oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. What do you think? Please no aggressive answers-as I see alot of them on here....
Thanks
formula fed baby.
 
My baby weighed the same as yours at birth and is now 11 weeks. She was 11lbs 1 oz at her 2 month check up. and 12lbs today. She is 22 3/4 long. i would say she is a skinny baby too. I dont think 13.5 lbs would be so terrible.

i also think it might be helpful if you tell ppl if you breast or formula feed her. might make the advise different.
