Went to my mister's doctors appointment yesterday and had her look at itty bitty. She's still losing weight. She's 6 lb 4 oz (6 lb 14 oz) at birth so back to supplementing my milk. I hate it. I feel so defeated like the worse mom ever. So ready for her to gain weight and be off it. She doesn't even like it. She's like wait this isn't my boob lol.

my little guy wasn't gaining weight either so I had to supplement as well. it helped when I added 3 DROPS of sugar water or simple syrup to 4oz of supplement. Breast milk has a bit of sweetness to it so I tried to make it as close to it as I could. It worked like a charm and he gained. Maybe you could try that and see!

Were you able to take him off of it with time @hulamami

I continued because he was thriving well with both. The difference was that his routine was based around the breastmilk, not the supplement. At night, he would have breastmilk. during the day, I would alternate so that it'd give me time to pump and store 😊
