080 - Weight Gain In the Breastfeeding Baby

Submit your question and we’ll answer it in a future episode!

“Honey, I am worried.  We were at the pediatrician today and our little guy didn’t gain as much weight as I thought he would have.”  

“Really honey?  I am surprised.  I thought he was eating well, and he is certainly busy and doing everything a little guy his age should be.  What did the pediatrician say?”  

“Well, we have to go back again in about a week to check his weight, but I am nervous that I will have to give formula.”  

“Hmm, maybe we should listen to the Badass Breastfeeding Podcast this week.  The subject is weight gain.  I assumed that was a newborn, maybe they are talking about weight gain at any age for breastfed babies.  Let’s check it out – I bet they have suggestions that will help!” 

This week, Abby and Dianne are talking about weight gain with breastfed babies, and what to expect.  Often as babies get past the first few months, weight gain slows.  What should you do if this happens with your baby?  Listen this week and find out more!
