Small babies???

Anyone here have a small baby?? Im so anxious about it all the time. Went to his 4th month check up and hes in the 12th percentile for weight. Hes dropped off his chart 2x now. Im just so anxious. He nurses well and im an overproducer too. Just at a loss. Any other moms struggling with this?

Same here! Went from 23, to 15, and we're down to 8th percentile now. They said if she dips again she's going to be labeled failure to thrive 😭 i was told to start waking her up at night again to get an extra feeding now and it worked for a week or so but now she's eating LESS during the day because of it. I don't know what else to do other than keep offering boob/bottle and hope she is gaining weight.

Literally!! Hes dropped twice now and we do a weoght check in a month but he feels heavy and chunky but hes short and small which is crazy cause my husband is 6ft 5in and im 5ft 10in

I just went to the doctors recently too and they told me my son is in the 2 percentile 😭 he looks healthy but is a skinny baby. The doctor said it’s fine as long as he’s not loosing weight or dropping on the growth chart.

My 4 mo old is now 6%weight (but 88% height) and his pediatrician didn’t care which I was surprised about. His weight % continues to drop each appt

Had my little cutie today 6/26. ♡

Honestly this was the easiest birth experience ever. I did get an epidural at 5 cm. It worked so well that even the birth itself felt like nothing. Baby boy was born at 9 am at 8 lbs 2 oz. I'm so in love all over again. 🥰

Those that have a newborn and a toddler - how are we doing?! 😴😅

I am super lucky that my husband still has a few weeks paternity leave, but I am tiired 🤣 however seeing my toddler with their sibling is the most adorable thing!

Is this normal to feel this way

Hiya, I feel like this may make me sound like an awful human. But did you all feel that immediate love and connection when you saw the two lines?

We were trying and know we want a baby, but I thought I would be overwhelmed with love immediately, and instead I’m just overwhelmed haha!

I’m hoping this comes soon as right now I feel pretty indifferent to the fact I’m pregnant.

Has anyone else felt in a similar way? Thanks xx
