Hi Airline, Sorry to hear you're having such a rough trot with weight gain. I just wanted to let you know that my Paed told me to 'demand feed' - which he meant when I demanded it, not the baby, and never less than 3 hourly. I'm so glad I was too tired to remember what he'd said & did proper demand feeding. I remember feeding 20mins or more each side many times. You might be interested to know that feeding within an hour of when the feed started (so a 'top up') is still classed as part of that original feed. I read that out of a book after a couple of weeks of feeling guilty for topping Jack up a couple of times a day, thinking I was doing it wrong. Really, it's baby's way of a) getting the fatty goodness they need, and b) building up production in your boobs.
As for anything else, I think Manta Ray has said it all. And if you have a niggling feeling that Save Our Sleep isn't working for you or your baby, there are other ways out there that might suit you AND baby better.
