Loose ???: I would look to his feedings and just cut back some. The effort would focus on feeding only for hunger and not to solve fussiness or prepare for sleep. The best way is to feed only as they awaken, and accept that they chew,mouthe, suck constantly as a comfort measure.Your goal should be to slow the weight gain not necessarily loose weight.
