Thank you all for the many responses you sent me privately and to lactnet.
I passed the suggestions to the mother.
When I talked to her she told me she had decided to continue nursing
(hurray!). She started to take care offer more food, instead of just
nursing, and to her surprise the baby is eating more. She also decided to
give a bottle of formula + cereal every morning before nursing, and the
baby is taking this too.
I will let you know about weight gain.
