Hi Jennifer. Welcome to Lactnet. I agree that this baby needs supplementing ASAP. Does this mom have a breast pump? If not I recommend renting a hospital grade double electric pump and have her pump both breasts together 6-8 times a day. She can use her own milk for supplements. Also 'wear' her baby skin to skin and give free access to the breast. Cluster feedings are normal. This baby needs 10-14 feedings per 24 hr day. I also recommend immediate referral to an IBCLC. Babies should regain to their birth weights by 2 weeks old, and many experts say by 1 week old. Let us know what happens.
