I am having a few problems with my ds (5 months) I have posted on this before and have recieved great advice.
I have recently had bad S&D bug and my supply seems to be very low (not just in the evenings) I have not eaten anything yet,but In am trying to drink plenty.
I am concerned as ds has had cough since begining of december. I was told by doc it was viral,Hv not happy about his slow weightgain, and the sound of his chest.
I have also noticed that in the morning his nappies are not very wet (in cloth so usually wet through)
went to doc who said his chest didnt sound clear and on looking at the movement of his chest wasnt happy, so prescribed antiobiotics.
He said give him double dose if know improvement in 48 hours then it would be hospital. Re dry nappies he says he had a good pool of saliva in his mouth so didnt seem that dehydrated, He also said his body must be storing the fluid ????? so should supplement BF with some cool boiled water.
I tried but he refused.
Wouldnt this just interfer with my milk supply, which seems a bit low atM??
Won't the water just fill him up and then he will have no room for milk??
Really frustrated as he just doesnt seem right and dont know what to do.
dont want to sound like neurotic mum.
