Breastfeeding help: Newborn sleepy and slow weight gain..having moment of weakness!? - pinky before and after weight gain pics
My daughter is 12 days and I am breastfeeding exclusively, but has not received his birth weight again. He was 6 pounds 6 ounces at birth and dropped to 5 kg 15.5 ounces to 2 days. After 4 days, 6 pounds was 1 ounces today weighed 6 pounds 4 ounces, so it wins and removal of wet and dirty diapers, and she gets enough milk, because their purpose is the color yellow shit. She did not win as quickly as it should be.
You eat enough, even when I wake up to eat, too. The problem is that they are so sleepy and lazy in the chest. In the hospital they told me I was a little funky with his tongue, so I suck on his finger before nursing. But if I do, I can feel it sucking lazy and weak. SYou still have a pacifier, so there is no nipple confusion.
I do not want to give him formula, but I am concerned about their weight is not enough. The pediatrician I come back just to list next week and her weight.

To add to what everyone said, and all are 100% correct: * Almost all *
"It is normal for a child to be sleeping in the chest. The enzymes in milk, which I am your dream, and I'm sure he feels the same when you are his sister. I am a nurse in this, and I think I could curl up and sleep than usual.
You do everything. I thought I first read this ... Wow this is the first time I can honestly say that the mother did everything right. Come on. To require a nurse. Nurse for comfort. -Creation and nurses do not receive breast milk flows better mom than a nice change.
She is gaining weight and has the right amount of wet diapers. Some babies are slower than others to learn and our baby happen. The doctor insisted that "the formula". I ignored him and walked on. Our daughter was very beautiful.
Wait. If you are interested, or if the weight gain did not gather, request the assistance of a lactation consultant before the formula. Because now you're even guessing seconds. You have no crystal ball to look within themselves and those who are good and calm anxiety. Get a little help now and a backup plan ... just in case. From my own experience ... Doctors are able to propose and lobby on the first option and it is not necessary in most cases.
Stand firm and give you a hug ... All babies are different, even from the same mother and father.
Have you tried it with clothes and t-shirt-feed? The lactation consultant who me to the hospital. I think his weight is really good. While she is winning, I see no reason for concern.
When babies are born, they have all this water retention, and fluid loss during the first few days. It is not unusual or unhealthy for a baby, lose weight, the first two days, then begins the weight gain. If the pediatrician is not worried, you should not. I also wish that breastfeeding is hard work, do not stress me, but it takes two to tango, and both are learning to do. Within weeks, the supply will increase, as the supply of milk. If there are enough dirty diapers, do not worry too much.
my baby is not the same, she fell asleep immediately after use, I went to sleep and woke up immediately, so I decided to complete the formula, I would not because I felt guilty, but I am glad that I not because it helps us in a routine, and best of all, but I feel frustrated. Everyone is happy
