I have written a post not too long ago about my 5mo ds who has had a stall in his weight gain. Just for background, last time i got him weighed it was his 6th week with no weight gain and the two weeks previous to this he has only gained 2ounces.
Anyway, i am now waiting to see a lactation consultant at my local hospital this week, and after getting him checked by the gp am waiting for an appointment with the paediatrician.
In the meantime i am thinking (and stressing) over everything that could possibly be wrong and looking for indications of what is wrong. I have been asked a lot about his nappies and have noticed over the past few weeks that whereas he used to poo approx once a week when he would have a massive poo explosion of loose but relatively thick consistency (which i was always told was normal), he has been pooing slighly more often, maybe 3 times a week, but there isnt much too it and the consistency is very thin, almost watery, although there seems to be quite a lot of it because it sometimes leaks. When i change his nappy though, it is more like a large stain in his nappy which has been absorbed. Could this mean there is something wrong with the quality of the milk he is getting?
