I have had enough!
After our hard week last week, the only thing I was delighted about was that on day 5 when they re-weighed Ella she had only lost 20g of her birth weight.
Then my midwife came to visit on Monday (day 7) and she had lost a tiny bit of weight. Today my midwife weighed her again, and she said she has lost even more weight! Now she has to come again on Saturday for another weigh.
I am just so tired of things not being right! I just wish that things would just strt to go right! I honestly thought that we may have one or two things to worry about because of her DS. But infact, her DS doesn't even come into it- I'm now just having serious worries Bout her feeding and her weight!
I feel like all I am doing is expressing (30 mins) and then feeding her. It's taking her 3 hours to feed on 2 oz, which is what the docs want her to have to pull her platelets up!!!
I never thought that I would say this, but I wish that she wouldn't be so sleepy and would cry with hunger! Poor baby girl!
