(she's 5 months old) and weighs about 13 lbs. - she doesn't gain a lot... she's only gained about a pound each month... and my 2 1/2 year old was the same way... the docs have said that they are just really efficient nursers...they get want they want and what they need...and they don't gain a lot (boy, i wish i had this talent :))... with this being said, i'd think a gain of anything is pretty good... <br />i guess i would ask why they feel the need to but her NG tube back in if she's eating well, gaining (even if it's not the "target"), and if she is pleasant and happy and not hungry... if she's thriving and growing...these seem to be more important questions instead of hitting a certain number (i would think)... we'll be thinkin' about you and praying that you get good news! :)robinhttp://www.anewrakowbeginning.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6910497165802997871.post-78039207853130239732011-07-13T22:33:25.265-04:002011-07-13T22:33:25.265-04:00That IS a lot, Chrissy. The doctor knows what Clar...That IS a lot, Chrissy. The doctor knows what Clara needs no doubt. I just looked up what Brennan gained in the 2 months between his 2 and 4 months check-up, and he gained an average of 0.6 ounces a day...from 11 lb. 13 oz. to 14 lb. 3 oz. Do breastfed babies gain an ounce a day? I'm praying!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04741716557165022888noreply@blogger.com
