hello my 14 month girl is 7.8kg le , small and light weight .. your baby will probably weigh more than mine in few months time .. so don't worry .. doctor told me that "she need to add abit of weight as she's supposed to be eating 3 times a day " " has she been eating meat , veggies , rice " " try to less feed milk , let her eat more " omg the comments really .. my girl is active , healthy it's good right . she was born at 37weeks 2.1kg , doc says she's doing well . growth is slightly slower then normal big kids and it's pretty normal to catch up .. no you don't have force feeding your baby , i used to have the same thoughts ! im like wa .. other babies are so cute so chubby confirm healthy one .. then i realise I'm small build so my girl has my genes .. easy to carry , easy to bully 🤣 im also a first time mom too , learnt alot from my mom , other mummies we shared experience..
