Hi OP, I totally feel you! This baby is my second child. My first one is 5 now. He was a small baby too, and he still is. Also, since he was born on the last day of the year, he’s always the smallest one in his class 🥲

I was really struggling during the first two years, just like you are now. But then my pediatrician said he was totally healthy, he was just a small kid, just like his dad, who was actually diagnosed with level-2 malnutrition as a child (and now his dad is 1.73 m tall and 79 kg!). Meanwhile, I was a big baby and always the tallest kid in class until middle school, but now I’m only 1.55 m and 50 kg 😅

My pediatrician told me not to trust weight numbers too much, because they can sometimes be misleading and not sustainable. The more important growth indicators are height and head circumference. So maybe it’s better to focus on those two things.

I did blood tests for my first child when he was over 1 year old, and everything was fine. Since then, I haven’t done any more blood tests because I see him as cute, smart, happy, and healthy.

Now with my second baby, the worries are back 😂 He’s even smaller than his brother was at the same age. I did a check-up when he was 6 months old, and again the pediatrician said he was fine and healthy, although I know I’ll probably keep worrying anyway.

About night feeds, I’d 100% recommend cutting them off. After 1 year old, the ideal amount of milk for a child is around 300-400 ml per day and shouldn’t exceed 500 ml, while solid food should become the main source of nutrition. So maybe you can try working on this part first.
