Hello everyone.
Today I had my monthly weigh in with my baby who was born with down syndrome. He has been doing so well until this way in. he was following a curve and going slightly above.
But in 5 weeks his weight has stayed the same. He hasn't grown or put on weight.

He is solely breastfed (I produce more than enough milk). I feel so deflated and sad. All those hours of breastfeeding together. And not even a 100g weight gain in 5 weeks.

What could have caused this ? His heart is fine (it was tested at birth). He doesn't have a temperature. He is still eating all the time
