My 10 week old baby boy has just been weighed and it seems he's only gained 3oz in the last fortnight. Until then he was gaining well. He is exclusively breastfed. I am not sure if I shiould be worried or not. The lady at our clinic who does the weighing is not a health visitor, she just weighs them then you queue up to see the HV - she said to mention it to her. I assumed she would see it in my red book and say something but she didn't look - I had actually gone to ask her about something else entirely so I suppose we were distracted by that. I didn't mention the weight thing as he seems so well and healthy and lovely to me that I can't imagine there is anything wrong and what could she say anyway?
I thought feeding was going well. I suppose over the last couple of weeks I have noticed him feeding a little less often but I thought that was normal at this stage. He does often fall asleep at the breast which I know isn't good but I have always taken the view that if he is still hungry when he wakes, he'll let me know.
Should I be worried?
