hi ! i had posted my message earlier and then u asked for some info and i posted my answer but i guess u didn't check so i am posting it here ! my original message is dated sept 26th. thanks !

thanks a bunch for reading the mail. well about my son's weight. he was around 7pounds when he was born and now he is alittle over 15 pounds. he gets excited to hold things, can hold his head nicely, has started to roll to one side yet but otherwise smiles and looks around and one thing he seems tobe always looking for is me - to drink milk from. hope u got my hint. he wants to latch on all the time and makes the sucking face as if just ready to start. i lie down and nurse him at night so proabably that has given him this habbit! he's not a 4-5hrs. at a stretch sleeper but what to do. i try to give him only formula as his last feed before bed ! he sleeps round 8. and is ready to start the day by 7 am. he takes 4 hrs of nap total in a day. does all this sound ok. i mean i just feel something is wrong somewhere. i feel him intake at one time is less for his age. he only takes 4- 41/2oz at a time where as he should be taking 6-8oz. ha na ? i'll wait eagerly for some input from your side ! thanks ! again ! Hetal replied. sy,,couldnt catch up with post,,this board so live,,,,i get lost sometimes.
acc to what i said in earlier post its expected out of 5month old to have 4-5feedings of 6-8ozeach,,couple oz more or les is fine...
with birth weigth around 7lbs,,i expect him to weigh somwhere around 13.5lbs to 15.5lbs,,,,in your case is 15lbs,so m fine.he is on right growth.
his developments looks ok to me..
well, your baby seems to be hunggry and is ready for solids,,give some 15-20 days of good struggle to feed him,,and then you can slowly start solids on your dr advice..always consult your dr for starting solids...
he sleeps well, acc to what you mentioned, m fine with it,,formula is heavier so dont expect your baby to feed more of that alternative. i would not mind if your baby drinks 5oz more and takes one more feed rather than taking formula feed of 4oz...
also your baby is at the milestone month right now,,5-6th month is the milestone months wherein you will find a big difference in his physical as well developmental growths and also expect his change in schedules, feeding times.
other than that there is not much to worry about,,give a best try to bf more often as long as you can,,when you feel that now you cant prolong,,start solids..if i were you, i will stretch it upto 6months complete,,for my baby best interest.he is doing fine on all aspects so dont hurry for solids...
abt increase of milk supply and all, i think i have posted you a link,,hope it helps...
take care, good luck
