Dear Friends:
Whenever a mom brings her baby for a weight check at a birth center
where I work, or when I see a new mom in hospital, I record the weight on a
growth chart based on breastfed babies that I purchased from Health Education
Associates. That way, she has a record and she can bring it to her pediatrician
at the next visit and perhaps educate from the inside out.
Growth charts still need to be used sensibly. Some babies have to be at
the 2 percentile just as some have to be at the 98th!
warmly,
Nikki Lee RN, MS, Mother of 2, IBCLC, CCE
