Well, not sure if you ladies can remember, but a couple of months ago I was stressing about my little man's weight gain. He was 4 weeks old and had only just gotten back to his birth weight. Had a lot of comments from irritating family, that i needed to put him on formula, because "he's a big boy! Your breastmilk obviously isn't enough"
Well, still fully breastfed, haven't caved into the comments (which mind you i STILL get) - Happy to announce that this week my little man Theo went in for his 4 month health check, and he is now 8.1kg!!!!! woohoo!! hehe! Which puts him on the 95percentile!!! Looks like my boobies aren't so bad afterall!!
The MCHN was stoked! She couldnt believe that he wasn't a formula baby!
Thank you for believing in me and my boobies! haha! So happy he is thriving so well
ps - now that he is so big, i have family commenting even more, that he needs formula even more so When will people believe and trust in the female body? hmph - but i guess thats a whole new thread!
