breastfed, teething 4.5 mo. old losing weight?

Speak to the pediatrician about this and see what he/she says. If your baby is having pain when she's feeding, it may be some other conditions that she's experience & just can't communicate to you.

I wouldn't worry just yet. Its only 5oz. and she could have just gotten a little longer which will tip the scales slightly. Also, if her output is fine then she is getting enough to eat. If you are really worried, she is old enough to start introducing cereal. Just take it slow. If it is a digestive problem, you don't want to aggravate it further. One thing I've learned is that moms know their babies better than any doctor, so if you really feel like something could be wrong, stress it with the doctor and make them run tests. Don't let them give you the runaround. Its better to be safe than sorry I always say.

you're genuine all scales weigh in a distinctive way. do no longer subject approximately oz..s basically lbs. your little you may desire to be teething, it starts off around 4 months previous, yet you will possibly no longer see a teeth till 6 months. my infant's basically decrease than 5 months previous, and he's doing the comparable element. it somewhat is well-known, so his pediatrician says.

Have her checked out if it keeps up. You can never be to cautious as you can never really know what the baby is fussing about yourself.

Baby might be teething, and maybe breast milk isn't filling the baby up.

If you are worried then call her pediatrician. It's better to call over nothing than not to call over something.

so you are going to worry over 5 ounces? STOP IT!
