No weight gain/2 wk appt

I will not freak out... ok maybe just a little.
The pedi was not overly concerned so I suppose I shouldn't be either.

LO weighed the same this week as he did last week but still an increase of 3 oz above when he went home. 

I'm exclusively BF'ing and he actually said that LO was eating for too long at each feeding. GRRRR. 

I'm going to see the LC tomorrow. 

Anyone else not have a weight gain at 2 wk appt?

 

EDIT: sorry ladies I see a couple others having this problem too ...

Re: No weight gain/2 wk appt

  • I was told the goal by 2 weeks is just to gain back what your LO loses just after birth. We didn't have any weight gain above birth weight at 2 weeks but the doctors were just happy she was back to her birth weight.

  • I think you're probably okay.  Like pp said, you're up to birthweight!  Ds didn't get there until he was 3.5 weeks old (I was full of panic then!  Ebf'ing, jaundice, and no weight gain, yuck).
