Anyone else got a prem baby * mine was 24+5 who seems very slow at growing. Was weighed last week and at 12+2 corrected was only 9lb 10 oz and 56cm in length.

Now been started on infatrini milk but making him very sick. On the 0.4th centile for weight and height

Thanks x

My little one is only 8lb 13oz at 3 months corrected blow 0.4th percentile and 55cm. She's on the same milk only taking small volumes. How much is your baby drinking? My little girl is also sick few times a week. x

My baby drinks some days 550 others 700mls a day but only drinks about 60-80mls at a time. So frustrating for him. Your little one is tiny too xx bless

Our babies sound rather similar. Mine will only drink 80ml max in one go 3 hourly and 4 hourly 50ml during the night. Ive asked to be referred to a dietician regarding the feeding. She will only drink using the hospital orthodontic teat too so nightmare lol. Is your baby still in newborn clothes then? Are you getting referred anywhere or are they happy as long as he follows his percentile? X

I see the dietician who says if in a few weeks he doesn't take to new milk then to start weaning. He's still in newborn 0 to 3 month clothing sometimes tiny baby Got to say though he loves the odd dip of rusk in his milk! X
