All babies are different. My son was formula fed and was never fat. My daughter is currently on formula and has some serious rolls on her legs. As long as your doctor says the baby is a healthy weight and size, don't worry about it.

well, make sure that YOU have a good diet. Mine is 4 months old and wears 9 month old baby clothes (for real). Sometimes it has to do with the milk you have, and it could be that he's ok but that he's not fat, maybe he's taking after someone in the family. Not all babies are fat, mine is but not all of them. If the doctor says he's fine then he's fine it doesn't matter if he's not fat

My first breastfed baby was a little chubby. The second, she weighed 8lbs 9oz at birth. By the time she was 4 weeks old, she weighed 12 lbs! 4 months old, she weighed 20 lbs. Now at 8 months old, she weighs 23 lbs. Since she started crawling around, she has not gained that much weight. She has just grew into her body. She still has thunder thighs and rubber band arms. I love every ounce of my Tubby Tubby. She has been in a 12 month size since she was 4 and a half months old.

a friend of mine have a very fat breastfeed baby. But mine isn't fat. its depend on how the mother feed the baby. My friend always feed every 2 hour, 15 minutes each side and never miss that.

jointly as breastfeeding, you ought to dangle onto a number of that toddler weight. consume healthful ingredients and drink somewhat some water. exercising as much as you're in a position. If that would not help you lose the pounds, wait till you're finished breastfeeding to do the nutrition plan element. I breastfed my third newborn for 10 months and as quickly as i became finished, i began dropping weight slowly. i attempted the hot 'milk' nutrition plan and it helped. Plus, i think fit.

As long as hes eating normally u have nothing to worry about. If your baby is pretty active he could be burning off more then hes eating. Ask his doc next time you go to see if the doc is concerned. My baby is small for his age but he is on formula, but he is very active!!

All babies are different. Most of my children were chubby until they started crawling and walking. Don't worry if your baby isn't fat, every child is different.

Breastfed babies grow at a rate that is normal for their bodies. Also, remember that the child's body type should reflect the parent's body types. Breastfed babies tend to be active sooner than artificially fed babies, and thus burn more calories.

I breastfed both my children, and neither was fat or chubby. They are both very healthy and active.
