Hello wise ones
I have volunteered to research how weighing babies can impact on breastfeeding on our maternity ward. There seems to be lots of confusion around the percentage of weight loss that should be acted on.
It appears any weight loss results in formula being given.
I would be very grateful if anyone would share the latest research and or article names so that I can stamp out unnecessary formula use and allow mothers to regain ownership of their breastfeeding.
Many thanks
