My PATIENT IS 3 1/2 months old and has slowed down breastfeeding
i have seen her for this today for the first time
She seems to be normal on exam
her mom a second time feeder feels she is making plenty milk
she is sucking vigoursly on her fingers

I suggested beacaues her mom feels she needs a relaxing private area to feed
she use more skin to skin
She create a better nursing atmosphere relaxing room and dark room
She keep a diary of bm's and urinations
Tired and won't ake a bottle or pacifier at all either

I plan to see her back next tuesday
and reway her

Send my other ideas
