My DS was unwell in October for around 5/6 weeks with viral illness and was completely off his milk and food. (He was 9/10mo at the time) and during this time would barely take anything and I was back and forth to the GP who never seemed to be too concerned just to keep pushing fluids.
prior to this he weight 9.1kg and weight dropped to 8.6kg, I saw the H/V who has weighed him in December and he was 8.8kg, they are coming out again this month to check weight but I’m so stressed and worried that he hasn’t gained the weight back.
He looks really tiny now compared to other babies the same age and I just wonder if anyone else has been through similar or has any advice? I spoke to the GP again last week who wanted to wait and see but I’m at the end of my tether with it all really.
also, just to add, he eats reasonably well and has done since he recovered. Of course there’s the odd day where he eats like a sparrow but mostly eats at least 1/2 - 3/4 at meals, plus 2 snacks plus milk morning and evening.
