He is on 8oz bottles every 3 hours, sleeps 9pm-12 in the afternoon next day (usually)… gets grumpy if i wake him up before 12.
He has been gaining weight really well but within the last week he has only put on 3oz, is this ok? Health visitor was grumpy as usual and didnt say anything apart from do i want to talk to another health visitor? i said no and she said no you dont need to, he seems to be doing well.
Has anyone elses baby got a slow weight gain?
Is 3oz in 1 week ok?
Hi. I also get my son weighed weekly, i just like to follow his rowth. My son was 5lb 7oz born and put on roughly 12 oz week until he was 16 weeks, the last 3 weeks he has only gained between 2-5oz. The hv said they expect it to slow down around this age and as long as they are not losing weight then not to worry. Hope this makes you feel a bit better
