Yes he still small, he still wears 0-3 clothes at 28 weeks old. But he certainly isn't FTT anymore. He is a solid little boy. I am so pleased I kept BF him, because I am sure if I was a first time mum, I would have given up when the HCPs were forcing the issue of formula.

he is the double of Ds1 as a baby, its like i had twins 10 years apart, if I can get a pic of Ds1 scanned in, you will see what I mean. Callum is a fab baby, he laughs, chats and makes me smile each and every day. yes he cries, but I wouldn't be without him now, I love him so much.

That one with the babygro was taken about 3 months ago, I must get it out again and take a pic of him besides it again, he is huge now compared to then.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 05/04/2008 22:23

He's doubled in size - what more could you ask?

What an absolutely amazing job you've done SGK. Such strength and determination in such adversity. Brilliant. Truly inspiring. You are right to be proud of yourself

And he's a cracker, isnt he?

I know all babies grow, but the way I was made to feel was that he would stay tiny forever, and that I was starving him. Yes he had a bit of help with 100ml of formula a day, but in hindsight, that was nothing compared to the amount of milk he must have been getting from me. I am still BF and I plan to keep doing it until he is 1.
