OK - My daughter is 16 weeks old. She is 24.25" long, but only 10.15 lbs. She was 8.14 at birth and lost 12 oz before she started gaining weight. She is now in the 5th percentile for weight and I'm worried. She is exclusively breastfed and eats 6-10 times a day for about 20 - 30 minutes at a shot. (I feed on demand). I have good milk production - pump 3-5 oz per breast. She has a BM after almost every feeding, about 6 - 8 a day. They are somewhat liquid, especially in the AM when she hasn't eaten in a while (she sleeps through the night or only gets up once). However, they are not frequent nor wet enough to be considered diahrrea (at least I think so...). Anyway, do you think this is normal? How much does/did your 4 month old weigh?
