I have been breastfeeding my baby for 7 months. Everyday, I keep breastfeeding her twice a day (morning and evening). I think I do not have much breastmilk since I stopped pumping milk at work.
Now the daily total milk consumption of my baby is less than 20 oz a day with 2 times breastmilk and 1-2 time crushed fruit. Now she weighs 20 lbs. I am so puzzled to decide how much to feed her. ?-( ?-( ?-(
My bb's situation is the same as you:
breastfeeding twice a day (morning and evening),
estimate total milk consuption is < 20 oz a day,
but he weighs 20 lbs now.
chanbebe,
A 7 months old baby boy weights 20 lbs is acceptable in the normal distribution. However, a 20 lbs baby girl is at over 97 percentile. Her waist is 20 inches as well.
