Don't panic! How old is she now? Is she still growing & developing? It's only 1 week - you have to average these thigns out over time. Look at her - does she look ok? The numbers on the scale are just one indicator, not themost importnt one.
DD hasn't gained anything in the past 6 weeks. She's grown though, and doesn't look thinner. Weird.
Don't panic Mel does she look taller? Maybe she is just growing in that way. It is only one week, how is the bigger picture? Wet nappies? Contentment? I'm sure it is fine, babies do have spurts and slow periods.
She looks fine I think? I can still squeeze her into 000, but did have her in a 00 today just to try it on for size. I don't find that really reliable since baby clothes are all over the shop with their sizings though. Grrr.
Nappies are wet, averaging 3 poos a day.
Maybe I should measure her length?
Mad- thanks for the reassurance. Are you not concerned about her weight gain? I think because my last mchn was so stressed out about eden's weight that I'm stressed out. Anything less than 100g wasn't acceptable to her. And that makes me stress lol
yeah, but it's only 1 week. Their weight gains can vary enormously week to week, so unless there are other signs of immediate concern (floppy, listless, dehydrated, etc) then it's best to wait it out for another couple of weeks and see how it goes. She's over 2 months now, right? From the 3-month mark (or thereabouts) the weight gains do slow down a lot.
At DD's age the weight can tend to plateau, so I'm not concerned. She seems fine to me. Also it was a different set of scales, so it may be that she's gained a little bit.
Just a quick one. I am currently giving DD her last feed as a one year old. In a few short hours she will turn 2.
When we started my aim was simply to breastfeed her. Then 3 months. Then six. Now I have no goals we just do it and will continue until we stop for whatever reason
