| My Baby's Doctor Visit |
|
| |
I took my kids to get their check-ups yesterday and my 9 month old had not even gained one pound since his 6 month appointment 3 months ago. He was in the 3% at that check-up, but now the doctor said he was not even on the chart anymore. He's in the negative %. I was pretty sad in my heart about it and the doctor said I had to give him formula to try and make him gain weight. I had only wanted to nurse him till he was one years old and not give him any formula, but now I had to. I cried. I have been trying to get him to take formula last night and today, and so far have only been successful in getting 2 oz down. He doesn't like it, but I keep trying with a couple kinds of bottles and formulas. The doctor said he needs to have three 8oz bottles a day in addition to nursing him and feeding him baby food jars. This is a hard time for me, I could use any prayers or support those of you reading this can offer. Maybe some advice. I know God will help me through this next month and that my baby will be on the chart by the check-up next month! In Jesus name!40:11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry [them] in his bosom, [and] shall gently lead those that are with young. |
