hi, as title says, i'm not sure if there is a problem or if i'm just having a 'wobbly' day!
DS is almost 14 weeks and EBF. from what i can gather, we've had a pretty easy ride, no pain, no probs with latch (that i can tell) and managed to get through all growth spurts so far. my problem is his weight. he was 10lb 3oz born, dropped to 9lb 8 and took almost 4 weeks to regain birth weight. HV and midwives saw no problem in this as he was a big baby. since then, he has gained every week but quite slowly (last week he weighed 12lb 11oz) meaning he was born on 98th and is now on teeny bit above 25th.
until recently, i have been happy to follow my instincts, he is fed on demand, HVs aren't worried, he has plenty of wet nappies, mostly sleeps well and when he's awake, is bright, alert and easily engaged. however, in the past few weeks he brings quite a lot of his feeds back up. he isn't in pain and does it silently bit by bit (never projectile). the reasonable part of me puts the sick down to incresed movement (he is very 'kicky' and active) and the slow weight down to the fact that he is just not a chubby baby, but the first time mum devil on my shoulder is concerned that i'm missing something???? does anyone have any experience of this?
oh, and just to give full disclosure, he takes about 20 mins each side to feed and always has both boobs!
sorry it's so long, my brain still isn't functioning at full pelt-am hoping to regain full use of it by the time DS goes to university!!!
