Hello colleagues

 

I had a interesting discussion with a obstetrician a few days ago. when I
mentioned that a baby I am  looking after for  their practice is averaging
between 300 - 450 grms weight gain per week breastfeeding

 


The obstetrician  said the baby was being overfed??????  How can that be,
the baby is being demand fed and has always been so. This baby is happy,
calm, and contented, and the mother is so proud of herself.  

 

Where can I get  evidence to support this breastfeeding dyad.

 

Regards

June Nicholls

IBCLC/midwife
