I HATE the scale. I HATE taking dd to be weighed. My ped puts so much pressure on me and I HATE it. She hasn't gained anything, according to the ped gi's scale this morning. We have to go to the ped at 1:15 and I am TERRIFIED of what her weight may be? I think she's 8 9 at least but idk. Ped gi wasn't sure the scale was accurate but I'm a mess thinking omg what now with the **** ped? I get so nervous with the scale. Anyone else have this issue when their lo gets weighed?

((Hugs)) I'm sorry hon. Have your tried supplimenting breastmilk with extra calories? I'd ask about it. We did that when Ava was tiny. We added formula to her breastmilk (pulmonologist request) and it helped.

yes thats what my ped gi said. she said 1 tsp to 3 oz bm. Thankfully her weight was up but it's not stellar and now she doesn't feel good and has a slight fever and is throwing up even more

Can't win poor girl.

What type of formula did they put her on?

I too hate the scale. I am always terrified that he is going to start losing weight again.

they put her on nutramiugen but I haven't added it. Honestly I think her weight gain is ok. she was 8'14 yesterday.

WAHOO!!!! Heard anything from CPS or have they 100% ignored their complaint? If they submitted medical records it is quite obvious you aren't neglecting your child.

I know the dread that you speak of. I hope all goes well with your new pedi.

nothing from therm yet. i am still on pins and needles. its been 2 weeks. i have no idea if he showed them the records. but my ins called up and questioned me on if i took my kids in regularly for check ups. i told them of course. they told the ped i'd had too many office visits. i told them it wasnt me. they dont want to pay them. not my issue though. i never asdked for the weight checks.
