Trishalishous - I BF DD until 6 months and then expressed until 10 months and she was on formula for 2 months and now cows milk. We give her 2 lots of 200mls of milk/day but sometimes if she has a super big meal she won't drink all of the milk. I will def start adding avocado and other oils to her diet - thanks for the tip.
MadB - DD really loves childcare and she's only there 2 days a week now so I don't really want to pull her out. I half suspect the MCHN might tell me not to worry at all about the weight gain and when my normal GP comes back from his holidays I'll make an appointment with him to get the 2nd opinion.
Trillian - I started her on probiotics a few weeks ago and I'll keep it up. Thanks for the tip because at least I know I'm on the right track, I was wondering whether I was just wasting my time with the probiotics.
Rivlas - I know! That's the thing, no one has ever said anything about her weight to me before.
Feeb - thanks for your comments, now that I have calmed down a little bit I feel a bit better and that it's probably better to be safe than sorry.
Cass - thanks hun. Xx
Mak - I was a really tiny kid so I think genetics might have something to do with it. Good point.
Sterla, RB, Alligator - thanks so much ladies. I really appreciate your thoughts and support. It's great to hear from people who have been in this position and to hear the outcomes and what happened.
If I have missed anyone, my apologies. I love belly belly for this reason. It is such a comfort.
