Brief history. DS3 was born on 14th Jan at 35+4. He weighed 7lbs 3ozs when born. We were both discharged on 16th Jan.
MW came and weighed him 17th Jan he had lost 9% of his birth weight, slightly jaundice.
MW came again 19th, he had lost 13% of his birth weight, still looking slightly jaundice so we were sent back to postnatal ward where he was seen by a paeditrician. They weighed him, took bloods, Kidney function came back normal and his jaundice level was high but not enough for treatment. They let us go and gave us an outpatient appt for next thurs (27th) to re-weigh him.
MW has been today and he's lost weight again! 40g.
He is bottle fed on Hipp Organic, takes 1-2ozs every 3-4 hours. At first we were waking him for feeds but now he seems to wake and cry for them himself, means we get more in him because hes awake.
He did the tiniest vomit yesterday, but thats it, he hasnt vomited at all since he was born. His nappies are very wet all the time and his poo has changed to yellow, he poos about 1/2 times a day.
I dont understand HOW he is losing weight?? Could there be an underlying issue which is being missed?
MW rung Paed at the hospital who was happy for us to stay at home and for MW to re-weigh him on Monday. I wasnt too worried initially but now th worry is creeping up.
