Anyone else have trouble with their newborn gaining weight from nursing? My first born did awesome, no issues whatsoever, but my daughter will be 2 weeks on Monday and when we went to the doctor today she had lost almost a pound from her birth weight. They’re checking her again Monday to see if she’s made any progress. I know she’s getting milk because I can hear her drinking it and when I pump I get plenty, but she also doesn’t nurse as often as my first bc she wants to sleep so much. Any one else have this issue and ended up being just fine after?

Yeah she poops so much no wonder she’s not gaining anything 😂
Continue to make her uncomfortable. Also make sure you’re eating healthy fats and drinking plenty of water. With my son I ended up resorting to pumping and bottle feeding because I couldn’t get him to wake and latch for long enough to get a good feed in.
I did do that earlier twice and she ended up getting plenty from the bottle so that’s good. I’m just trying to avoid having to formula feed if I can help it. I could probably up my water intake more too lol
@raisingradicks15, that’s why I suggested pumping or hand expressing. I did it with my daughter as well in the beginning because she slept and slept. Once I gave her a bottle it triggered her hunger or something. She hasn’t slowed down yet 😫
@mswedes, hopefully that’ll help then, I’m still interchanging with nursing and bottle so we’ll see
I’m trying to, it’s hard for me to get her to wake up, a lot of times I have to undress her and make her uncomfortable to get her to wake up.
@raisingradicks15, my babies were like that. I always changed diaper first and then fed them. Stay positive. She’ll be okay.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
In the first month you should be waking them up to feed them even if they just want to sleep. My daughter was the same way but I woke her every two hours and made sure she ate. Eventually she started being hungry more often since she started to realize she liked being full more han she liked to sleep. Just keep waking her. She's got a super tiny tummy right now, so she needs to be eating frequently since it's filled up and hen emptied pretty fast.
