Hi,
I am a pretty healthy early 30s mum of 2 (under 2), still bf the 6 month one. She was born 7lb 2 and today @ 6 mths is just 13lb 1. HV v v concerned as is now in the "red zone" on the weight charts, and seems to imply it is my fault. Baby feeds reasonably well (10-15 mins each feed) and has 4 bf & 1 bottle a day (takes abt 6 oz in bottle). Still not sleeping through (does abt 11pm to 5am) but the other one didn't till about 7 months either! I eat well (big bowl of cereal, 4 sarnies for lunch, cake/biscuits/fruit throughou the day and pasta/rice with meat usually for dinner). What on earth am i doing wrong?? suggestions would be well appreciated!!
