@cutiereborn, most govt hosps/health centers give at 9months after 14weeks. 6months is usually infant welfare check up. However i've noticed some centers esply private give @ 6months. Whichever way, use a particular center and stick to their regimen. @hafsat, increase your fluid intake and don't try to watch your weight yet. Put baby to breast often cos the more he sucks the more the production. |

@soonest, thank you for the explanation. I guess I will stick to the 9months appiontment given to me at the Health center. Thanks again! 1 Like |

UmmTwins2 I also think it's colic, does his tummy swell? Ds also does that when sucking but after administering infacol it all stopped. Does your baby have a big navel? Hafsat24 I noticed pregnacare breastfeeding helped me and when taking tea or pap put enough milk and Milo in the tea while for the pap put plenty milk. For the weight lemme share my story Ds was 2.3kg at birth and at 3 days immunization he weighed 2.0kg but when we went for 6 weeks immunization his weight had reached 5.0kg. I will suggest you just concentrate on feeding him for now 1 Like |

UmmTwins2: Yes. Some babies experience colic even up till 6 months. Like I said in my earlier post, give him infacol or take him to the hospital. |

lizzy22: Get 'lasinoh' cream for your sore nipples. It is very,very effective and gives almost instant relief. Take oats or pap with lots of milk. It will increase your milk supply. Even though your milk isn't flowing well, don't stop breast feeding your baby as often as possible (as it helps in improving your flow) and you can keep supplementing with formula until your milk flow can meet up with your baby's demand. |
