So, I'm letting something that was said get under my skin and just want to know what you ladies think.
DS is 4 months and on a 4 hour easy. He is a big boy, about 17 lbs. and 25" long. He's not really pudgy (although he does have big, squishy, thighs that are fun to eat!), but more like solid. He takes an average of 36 ounces a day. I was told that keeping a baby on a feeding schedule is bad because it teaches them to ignore hunger signals and leads to eating disorders later in life. DS eats every four hours like clockwork, but only because I feed him (with the excpetion of night time when he sleeps from 7:30 to between 6:00 and 7:30 am with a df at 10:00). Now I'm all paranoid that I'm not waiting for him to be "hungry enough" and that I'm over feeding him. Who waits for their baby to be hungry? My Ped say that you can't give an infant to much love or to much food. However, ds is only 4 months and wears 12 months clothes! His dad is tall (6'1", about 190 lbs) so he has some "big" genes in him. Does it sound like I'm feeding him to much?
