Hi Irene
Sounds like you are a suffering from premature anxiety.  Given the baby was
born in the USA, I am sure that mom and baby were over-hydrated at birth.
This inflates birth weight (and increases loss).  There two clues here that
tell you that things are going well.  The baby has put on weight.  Even
though it is a small gain, it is a gain which means that bub has rounded the
nadir and is on the way up.  The second clue is 4poops/24hrs yellow in color
on day four.  Perfect.  Since mom is feeding >10 times in 24hours, no sore
nipples and baby is content between feeds, all the signs are good. I don't
see a need to do AC/PC weights at all.
