When he was born he was 5lb 12ozs and is now 4lb 8ozs.He struggles to feed and can't keep his food down .He had tests done and he's not de-hydrated, i am really worried!!!!
He was on expressed breastmilk for first 5 days and Aptamil formula for the last 24 hours but has not made a difference!!!
Anybody had any similar experiences??
He is being fed 59ml through bottle feeding but will only take on average about half of this,sometimes it will be as little as 15ml sometimes almost tha whole bottle,whatever is left he is fed through a tube!!!
