My baby is exclusively breastfed, she was small for gestational age and was an induction for that at 38weeks, 5lb 15 Oz/2.7kg at birth. She was back to birthweight by day 8 and by her 2 week check at 17 days old she was 1lb over her birth weight.
I weighed her on my scales at home yesterday by weighing myself first and then the two of I
Us and she's put up the guts of another half pound in 3 days??
I breastfeed her on demand which ends up being about every 3-4hours and she has plenty of wet and dirty nappies. I always believed you can't overfeed a breastfed baby but is this rapid weight gain ok? Maybe she is just catching up on herself because of low birthweight and will even out?
