in My baby was born in July 2011
Phoebe was back at the HV to be weighed on Tuesday (I couldn't go as was desperately ill in bed) and hubby came back with GREAT news....



My chunky monkey had put on 110z in a week!!!!



I've been BF every 3 hours and expressing 6oz for a dream feed for the last week and its paid off Im so pleased image



Ive decided to replace the dream feed with formula to take the pressure off a little as want her to continue to grow.....

    that's great news, well done you and phoebe! you must be relieved all your hard work has paid off.



    We combine fed from about 4 weeks with one bottle of formula in the evening and finley was fine with it.



    I'm now replacing feeds with formula and it's going really well so far. I am sad to be stopping breast feeding but also excited to get my body back.



    Good luck with replacing her expressed bottle with formula, sure she'll be fine xx
