not gaining weight again :(


went to have katie weighed as per usual this afternoon and she was 12lb 10.5, exactly the same as last week last week she put on 4.5oz, the week before it was only 1oz and the week before that only 3. before that it was always 6oz.

the nurse that does the weighing said she's gona get the HV to ring me

when she was born she was above the 98th centile (9lb12) and is now only just above the 50th. i always feed her when she's hungry and she's a really happy baby and she wees constantly so she's getting enough milk, just isnt gaining weight.

compared to other babies her age she seems really active, constantly kicking her legs about and trying to roll over and stuff, which could be somethin to do with it, but dont stop me worrying

I wouldnt worry if she is still around the 50th percentile... that is ideal baby weight. I only get Jasmine weighed at her appointments, I cant be bothered with weekly weighing... I know she is healthy.
