Permission to post. I have had a referral to see this mum and baby.
Induction of labour at term +5 days for macrosomia. 2nd baby
Rapid labour, normal vaginal birth-no trauma, complete 3rd stage.
BW 5230 gms, remained with mum for duration od postnatal stay-48hours.
Extensive skin to skin, blood sugar protocol followed-all blood sugars above 2.6
mmol so no top up required. Weight at 5 days 4500gms, weight at 10 days
4700 gms. Exclusively breast fed. My question what will this baby's normal
growth parameters be given that on the centile calculater the 100th centile is
reached at 5000gms. i am not sure what his normal will be so not sure when
he has deviated too far.
Mum is coming to see me to discuss ways of improving her supply.
