Weight gain!

[wannabmummy]

Theo has gone from 9lbs 10oz to 10lbs 1oz in 6 days! I must be doing something right now eh girls?? He has never gained that much and when I saw the scales I thought they were lying!!

I'm proud but it looks like I will be expressing from now on because he's still not taking my boob! He's such a fussy eater! At least he's still getting my milk, it just makes it doubly hard xx

Well done theo and mummy!

If you express and keep trying him on the boob he might get the hang of it again?

Thanks girls. I keep trying him on boob but he's just not interested. Going to keep persevering though! Xx
