Recently posted about slow weight gain issues in 9wo DD. On Monday she had only put on 2oz in 5 days (so now 7.9) so they wanted me to start formula top ups. Which dd is resisting so really persevering with extremely regular feeds, skin to skin, compressions etc. however over the past dew days I've seen some changes:-
- suck feels different. Stronger?
- never normally naps during day. Over past 2 days has had morning and afternoon
- went to sleep 10pm but past 5 nights went at 8pm. And instead of waking up herself every 3 hours I've had to wake her. And even then it's a struggle.
- normally 2 poos a day at 6am and 4pm. And only 1 very runny poo over past 2 days. Plenty wet.
- only feeding every 2 hours at least when I'm trying at least hour and half. And due to naps some feeds been every 3 hours which isn't great from the weight gain pov. (And my boobs are getting engorged from less use)
Temp is normal and she's happy and alert. I rwalise what she's changed to sounds normal but given her weight worries in worries she's not taking enough in.
Do I have something to worry about?
