there's something wrong with your child if she is dropping weight and getting "thinner and thinner" as you say, regardless of whether or not you can afford medical help, your child needs attention. you need to go to the hospital.

Being fat does not make her healthy. She is healthy the way she is as long as you are feeding her like your doctor told you to. As babies grow they begin to slim up because they are getting longer. Once she stops getting tall she may plump up again.
My grandson was a real rolly polly when he was little. Once he started crawling he started to slim up. Now that he is walking and running around all over everywhere he is really thin. But he is getting taller, too.
Don't overfeed her trying to make her fat. Her body will take care of itself. She will even reach a point in a few more months that she has slowed down in the growing process and will want to eat less. Don't force her to eat more.
Let nature take it's course and you will have a healthy baby whether she is fat or slim.
Congratulations and Good Luck!!

Firstly Fat doesn't mean healthy and secondly If the child if losing weight you must consult a good doctor immediately.
For kids under 3 months of age you must consult the doctor on the very first sign of any problem.

Keep feeding as often as she wants. The baby knows how much she can/can't eat. It might just be her body type to be a bit more lanky. If her weight drops significantly, she may have a health problem. But if she just thinned out a bit, I wouldn't worry about it. It might just be a phase. It's also not healthy for babies to be really fat either. If you're still concerned, speak to a nutritionist. You can speak to one for free through your local WIC program.

i grow to be only going to ask a similar question! My lady baby is likewise 2 a million/2 months old and is around 14 lbs now and 24 inches long. yet she grow to be purely 7lbs. and 8oz and 20 inches long whilst she grow to be born! I also have a number of of friends that have older toddlers, yet mine is as huge or better than theirs. She is sooo lovable, yet i'm somewhat unhappy that she only keeps out becoming all her lovable outfits - she is in 6 month length now! I too save thinking if she will proceed to advance this rapid or if she will decelerate. i assume we can only ought to attend and see what happens!

Sounds like you are confusing a plump baby with a healthy baby. Babies don't need to be big and fat to be healthy. As long as you are feeding her a balanced diet and making sure she's getting all the vitamins and nutrients she needs, she'll be fine. You don't need her to be fat to be healthy. I'm mom to 3.

Make sure that your baby gets proper sleep at night. Proper sleeps at night will make your baby healthy. And for proper sleep always put your baby in Easyfit baby diapers available on http://easyfit.in/ before sleeping. If your baby will sleep well then in the morning he will be fresh and happy.

You need to ask pedetrician but my advice is she is taking care of herself if she is hungry she will let you know and her body will catch up with her not to worry sweetheart you will be fine and she is just fine! P S think about this Healthy and Fat do not go together!

sweetie make sure she is eating enough formula or breast milk, and that she has water occasionally.That is all new borns are supposed to have, if you think she is loosing weight then she needs a check up with her Dr so that they can evaluate her and advise, good luck
