Found that my baby is not that tall mainly is because our genes. Her tall percentile remain 10 but this time drop to 5. Any reason? Is it not enough nutrient? My breast milk not enough nutrient for her stage now? She is 9 month old now. She only drink 100ml EBM every 3 hours and 3 times solids in between during daytime. But If I direct latch her when I back from work, she will drink more.. every 2-2.30hour till morning. Any advise? She is only 7.4kg and 65cm now. I'm more concern about her tall percentile dropped. Please help. thx.

Growth charts are just indicative. Don't brood too much over it. If u think this is a concern, please check with PD or whenever baby goes and do her development assessment. To me, so long as u r eating healthily, nutrients will b there. Sometimes it is the genes of the baby.

Hello mummies, I am going for a short six days trip soon and really worried that 8 months old lo not willing to latch when I am back.

Hi mummies, my LO is 16 wks tmr and I have been latching him at night. However, the past 2 days he have been rejecting the breast and will cry when being offered. He is ok when being fed with bottle although still abit fussy and cranky. I'm feeling so sad that he rejects something that used to comfort him in the past. Any idea why is this happening? Thanks in advance!

Every baby is different.. you may find this article useful: http://www.whattoexpect.com/first-year/week-21/nursing-strike.aspx It states some possible reasons why baby may be refusing the breast. I was wondering if it could be slow letdown (last point on the list in the article) since he is ok being fed with the bottle.

My NB has jaundice and i have heard breastfeeding causes the jaundice level to rise is it true? Any mummy can advice how to reduce the jaundice level?

I replace some of the feeds by fm till jaundice dropped. as I do not wish to see her going through all the pokes on her feet. it works. dropped faster than before.

my daughter (4mo) is bottle fed ebm in the day and she dl at nights when I'm home. it's always been fine. but these 2 days she's been rejecting my boob. she will cry and struggle after sucking for 2 mins. this is making my night feeds a nightmare. can someone advise on this?

It could even be early teething. Do check her gums. Or she could be coming down with a cold. If it persists, best to check with a doctor.

Hi, my LO has been having watery stools on and off these 2 days, coupled with a lot of gas. She has been taking EBM..was wondering if it could be due to some food that I've taken recently (e.g cheesecake, spicy mee goreng that I had). Anyone had similar experience and managed to identify the cause? (*disclaimer : poop pic attached) Thanks in advance mummies!

The foods you had were quite rich and heaty. Maybe that's why. Stop eating such foods for a while and wait a couple of days to see if the poop condition changes.

My daughter is 4 months and weighs 6kg at 64cm. She is bottle fed ebm in the day and direct latches at night. Usually she takes 4 - 5 bottles of 100ml at every 2-3 hrly. But lately she doesn't want to drink. She barely finishes 3 bottles in the day. She has 2 bottom teeth and can already roll over so doc says she's fast for her age. But her feeding habits really worries me. What can I do get her to feed properly again ?

could be teething phase at the moment. Try applying some teething gel to help her w the pain so she can feed properly.
