Hurrah! He's put some weight on - 0.2kg. Before the weekend there were concerns that he hadn't put any weight over last week. So at the meeting with the paediatric nurse and SNICU consultant last Thursday most of the discussion was about feeding. After talk of various ways to supplement his feeding, the simplest option was chosen: just up his 3am feed to 70ml (from 56ml) and to add fortifier to it. If that then doesn't create a weight gain over the next week then maybe we would have to think about bottle food (not breast milk) or top-ups at each feed.
