Is 18lb too big for 14 week breastfed baby

Fionn is 14weeks today and He weighs in at 18lb. Is this too big? I only breastfeed him and I was told you cant give them too much breastmilk. The doctor just says he is a big baby and that he takes afer his dad.( I am 4ft10 100lb).

My little guy is big too- he turned 9 weeks yesterday and is 14 pounds 5 oz.  I'm exclusively breastfeeding too-we don't even own a bottle- so I say they are just fine. Jett is in the 90th percentile but my doc. said not to change a thing!  Hope you are doing well! Our Nov. 08 Mommy board seems to have fallen apart!
