Sharon did you get Oliver weighed today??? Was he the piggly wiggly you thought he would be? How far off 5kg is he???
Nettie Greer was only 6lb 7oz and when we were giving her bottles she was only taking 40 to 60 mls so I'd ay that Liam is fine with the amount he is taking.
Can't recall who asked early in the thread about what to avoid with BF other than chocolate, coffee and cabbage... it is wise to avoid non-essential foods that are common allergens like cow’s milk protein (found in milk, cheese, yoghurt). Other foods that may cause allergies are peanuts, eggs, soya products, fish, wheat and citrus. It's also wise to avoid acidic foods like tomatoes and tomato sauces. It is best to eliminate them all and the introduce one back into the diet for 3 days to identify what is affecting the baby.
I'm thinking I need to avoid milk as Greer has had 3 power chucks today and the only thing that has been common in the eating prior to those feeds is milk. Bit sad about that one.
