for the first 2 years of life, growth is usually a reflection of in utero. After age 2, it is more of a familial/genetic thing. What are your son's growth parameters (% ages wight & height) in the past and now? Did he go more than 2 of the lines on the growth chart? Breast fed babies typically will can weight quicker than formula fed babies. Remember that one needs to look at the overall trend and not just a point in time. Most people suggest holding off the milk until 12 months. Are you supplementing the baby with Vitamin D drops? Breast milk has no vitamin D.

The only insight I have is that my breastmilk supply tanked when I started this WOE, but it was probably more a result of not having time to pump frequently enough while away from the baby at work. You know, numerous variables changed at once, one of which was starting to eat low-carb, so no single thing can be named as the cause of the reduction in my supply. The reason I think it's the pumping thing is because the same thing happened with my 2nd and 3rd babies when I returned to work. It was just too complicated keeping up a regular pumping schedule given my work schedule. But if you are eating healthy fats, that is great for baby! Just curious, do you pump at all, or strictly breastfeed? I did notice the fat content of the milk I did pump increased, which was great, because previously my milk had been 2% (okay, that's a joke, but there was definitely more fat!).

Both of my children were quite chunky and breastfed at 10 months, and I was very high carb with them both. I thought it was more of an "I can and do eat anything and everything" sort of stage for babies/toddlers so they might gain weight due to that? My son especially got heavier, he went from the 35th for weight to the 91st quite quickly.
