How do know of your baby has been overfed? My 10 month old boy eat porridge twice a day, and drink abt 800-900ml of bm per day.. Is this too much? Mil can feed him porridge af 530pm, a btl of milk at 730pm another at 830pm he is drinking 130ml per feed..but the thg is during weekend whn i am with him, he only drink about 550-600ml of milk and having same qty of porridge Mil feed him milk when he start to get cranky, i suspect he needed some comfort to slp rather then drinking of milk. Am reluctant is offer pacifier to him now.. any advise wat else can i do to know if he is overfeed? or wat can i do to soothe him to slp rather than feed him milk?

Based on what i know and have heard. Babies cant be overfed. They know how much they want and need. When my boy was about that age, he drank like 7 bottles of milk each night. Based on observation it was not for hunger but rather for comfort. Also you may want to see if the increase intake of food in the day maybe able to lessen the milk feeds. Other then that, id say its fine. My boy still drinks this much till today. However, drinking too much isnt good either. With that said, you arent alone :)
