I know this may sound like a daft question but here goes..
DD is 20 weeks. From 10 weeks her weight gain has decreased. From birth to 10 weeks she gained on average 5ozs per week but from 10 weeks she has only been gaining 0-1oz per week. She started on the 50th centile and has now dropped to below the 25th. My HV isnt worried and has said they will only look at it when she has dropped another centile.
My diet isnt what it could be e.g I dont eat a lunch but do eat ok at tea time etc. Could this be the reason that she isnt gaining weight. Could it be that my milk is not of good enough quality?
Or does anyone have any other reasons.
Im trying not to worry but cant work out why she isnt gaining weight over such a long time.
