My daughter is 11 days old and was weighed this morning. She was 3.8 kg at birth and by day 5 had dropped to 3.69kg, which is normal and to be expected. But then this had dropped further to 3.67kg this morning.
She is bottled fed, a mix of expressed breast milk and formula.
HV suggested fitting in an extra feed per day, which we have tried but she has just brought all of her latest feed back up.
I thought she was feeding well, 60-90ml every 2.5-3 hours and twice in the night.
But now I'm paranoid something isn't right and am worried. I never had such worries with my son.
I left a message with midwives around noin but won't hear from them until the morning.
Does anyone have experience of similar?
