Wow Ambah, you've done a great job to be unpacked and settled already, that's amazing! Glad it's all done and you're happy!
Ok, well I was right about Adara not getting enough from my BM - I went to the MCHN yesterday and I had figured that she wouldn't have put on as much as she should've but she's actually lost 200 grams! She's now only 6.6kgs and gone from around the 45% mark to the 10%!!! That certainly explains the night feeds and loving solids all of sudden. She told me I need to give her 3 meals a day filled with as much carbs, dairy, iron and fat as I can, plus mix it all with formula and give atleast one bottle of formula a day. Yeah right... This morning she wouldn't eat her cereal which she normally loves b/c I made it with formula.
I'm freaking out about it. I've got an appt with her next week and if she hasn't gained I'm thinking I'll take her to a paed to see if they can help at all. I feel so guilty. I always said that I wanted to BF until she was 12mths but if I didn't have to share my BBs with anyone except DH for awhile I wouldn't complain! Formula would obviously be a lot better for now, just have no idea how to get her to take it.
