Overweight Babies...is it healthy?

Tweet

My sister just had a baby and she is over feeding the baby I think. My daughter told me the baby is as big as my cousins 2 yr old baby. I live in a different state because of the military but I have seen pictures. My sister's baby is 3months old. but she has been feeding the baby cereal since she was a month old. Is that healthy? I thought babies can also have heart attacks and serious problems from being over weight. People think it is cute to have a fat baby. I never over fed my children and they had baby fat but where never over weight. As I feed them when they were hungry I never fed them to shut them up. I coddled them if they just needed attention More and more people are feeding these babies to quiet them. But are they not doing more damage than good? What is your opinion?
