<< He weighed 4 lb. 12  oz. at birth (full term) and is now at 8 lb. 8 oz.

    He has just about doubled his birth weight.

    the darling study showed that bf infants usually gain slower after 3
months....

    how about adding breast massage during the pause of his suckling....

    are there other contributing factors... was he sick for a spell? with 6
sibs it may be very difficult for him to pay attention to eating... he may
need some quiet for eating. does he eat better at certian feeds?
