Re: Does your child over eat..long time no reply

[Guest guest]

Wow another thing in common, Vinny just got over Thrush about 3 weeks

ago. The doc said it is unusual for older babies to get it. I had

to stop breastfeeding him within the first 5 weeks because he was

draining me dry. All he did was eat and eat and eat but he would

never get the glazed look. The minute I gave him formula his eyes

were filled with content. I had him on the concentrated formula and

one day I bought the powder and noticed a big difference in his

spitting up, so we switched to thst. I'm going to switch him over to

regular milk soon so we'll see how that works.

,

My son is one today. He still only drinks 4-5 oz. of formula in a

sitting. He is eating most people food. He has a fit everytime we put him in his

highchair to eat, and it usually takes 3-4 bites with him spitting it out before

he will eat. I think he doesn't realize he is hungry until he trys it a couple

times. But he is never slow to let you know when he is finished. We don't do

sugar foods but he is definately a bread man just like his dad and 3 year old

brother! is 24-25 lbs. So we don't worry too much but we try to stay

away from sweets and breads until after the veggies and meats. Though I will say

when he used to spit up (and sometimes still does) I have just always felt that

it was because he ate too much.

Hi ,

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, I ended up in the hospital

yesterday because of my back/neck. I think I'm gonna put Vinny on

whole milk soon. Probably within the next 2 weeks. I started my

oldest when he was 10 months and he ate more that him. At around a

year - year and a half his drinking and eating slowed down. If it

doesn't woork out with Vinny I'll put him back to formula.

I just know that most pediatricians reccomend waiting until they are 12months. I

am no expert on the subject. These reccomendations seem to be always changing. I

have a 15 yr old son and back then you where supposed to sleep them on there

belly and formula until they where almost 2. So I dont know for sure if they are

still saying 12 months on formula. We have our 9 month check up on the 24th I

will ask. I am sure your Dr has talked to you about it though

I want to make a little suggestion on switching over to whole milk from formula.

Some babies have trouble making this aburpt change, so when Garrett was a baby

my pedi suggested that I gradually decrease the amount of formula and replace

that amout with milk.

 

So, if he normally had a 6oz bottle I would put 4 oz formula and 2 oz milk. Then

each week I would increase the milk by 2 oz and decrease the formula by 2 oz

until we were completely on whole milk. I didn't do this with my other boys and

they did have trouble with the abrupt change, so I think this was a very helpful

suggestion and it really worked well with Garrett.
