Because I'm starting to wonder if this is why Max got so big so fast. Maybe his tummy hurt, so he thought he was constantly hungry, and therefore we did too and fed him. He didn't spit up much until recently so he gained fast.
I am not sure though - the docs always told me you can't overfeed a newborn (when I'd voice my concerns with both kids). WDYT?
Re: Do you think from 0-3 months babies can eat for "comfort"?
Yes they eat for comfort all the time. No you can't overfeed them. Both are true. Comfort = overfeeding is only true for us adults :-)

I think I was just reading something about putting cereal in bottles, and how its a bad thing. ?What I was reading said that babies know when to stop eating when its regular formula or breastmilk, but if cereal is added, then that can mess with their minds, and that can lead to over feeding. ?
Basically, this seems to have little to do w/ your post, but I think what I got out of it is that babies just know when they are hungry, and its not just comfort. ??
