My LO was breastfed until this morning and I have been expressing and mixing it with formula since then.
Her weight has dropped from 7lb10 to 6lb9 since Sunday. She was checked yesterday and today and had dropped an ounce overnight. The MW, doctor, bf-ing support person I was speaking too were all really worried about such a weight drop.
I've been then feeding her mixed bf/formula. Was told to keep an eye on what she is taking it. She had 1oz at 8am this morning, 1.5oz mid morning, 2.5oz when the MW was here (sicked up some of it though) and just there took 1oz. MW told me she should be getting 3oz every 3 hours, which she definitely has not been getting. If she still had issues feeding, to take her to the childrens A&E.
She had been listless/lethargic since yesterday and this has continued to today. She fell asleep mid-feed and wouldn't waken for the rest at all. Not sure what to do but am now terrified of the night time. Our A&E has a 6 hour waiting time and with a 2 year old as well, I just don't know whether to bring her down or not...
