I called the doctor with whom I work on Friday night and said I think we need to see the baby Sat. He said call and see how they are doing, but the baby looked good (general health not nursing) I said I know she looked good but I don't want to wait to see her until Monday. I called the parents and talked to Dad, as mom was busy and could not talk( nursing the baby). They told me no BM for three days and 3 wet diapers in 24 hours. I said come in in the afternoon. We saw the Baby ( doctor and I ) he checked her mouth (Thanks for the suggestion of slight cleft-- negative) and Mom said she stopped losing milk on Friday!!! and the baby had gained 2 ounces!!! ( This baby was losing so much milk Mom had to put a towel under her breast and on baby). The only thing I did on Thursday was to have mom support her breast more for baby and review latch on ( she was a 10 min. work in so I did not have time to do a complete work up but the doctor had given her a physical on Thursday and he knows alot about breastfeeding too). On Sat I put baby in football hold on the side she was still having difficulty latching on and the Mom said she had not nursed that well ( stayed on) on that side ever and wathced baby nurse on right in cradle. The baby is doing a lot of comfort sucking. I heard very little suck swallows ( mom said she was hungry) but she gained 2 ounces in two days. It's a mystery to me! maybe not losing so much milk helped! We will see what happens on Monday! Thanks to all who replied. It was a good feeling to know I had a place to turn. Camille
