weight gain in bubba

[jlk]

Hi all,

just a quick question, I took Miss T for her 4 month check up last week and it showed she had only put on 100grams a week since her last checkup 3 weeks ago (300gms all up)
MCHN has now made me feel like my supply is getting low and that she needs to put on more weight per week
should i be worried, she sleeps through everynight with the odd exception, she is happy and is having plenty of wet nappies, i thought at her age it was normal for her weight gain to slow down.....

i dont think u should worry at all she sounds like she is content with her lifestyle nbot every baby piles on weight and sometimes they say that to put it in ur head that u need to do more.. if ur really worried take her to ur gp n just get him/her to check her over..
i think it sounds like ur doing everything right some babies are just not meant to gain weight at lightening speed... maybe she jus isnt a chubby bubba.. doesnt mean she isnt healthy or not getting enough milk

100g per week is a great gain!!

I agree! 100g a week is great! Forget every word she said.
