The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Formula provides the calories and nutrients needed for healthy baby growth, which supports weight gain. However, the question "does it cause weight gain" requires being thoughtful when evaluating formula alone.

Every baby progresses along their own growth curve. When prepared in the right amount and in the proper way, formula helps your baby stay at a healthy weight for their age and needs. What matters is not giving formula more concentrated or in larger amounts than recommended, but responding to your baby's hunger and fullness signals.

If you have concerns about your baby's weight gain, it's best to consult your pediatrician and have them evaluate your baby's growth curve.
