A light matter?
Bruno has not gained any weigth in over a month. He eats ok but he doesn't get any bigger. The doctor seemed worried, so he ordered blood, urine and feces tests to see if he has any kind of infection. Muffin is so young, we must take him to the hospital for the tests, since they won't do them at our regular centre.

This is more or less his eating routine:

  • Breastfeeding in the morning, before going into day care. We now add some cereal with milk after that.

  • Vegetables at day care, which he eats no problem.

  • Fruit when he gets home (which he isn't very good at yet, so i breastfeed after that).

  • Formula with cereal in a bottle before going to bed, and some breast milk if he fancies it.

  • Breastfeeding once during the night.


  • I don't think he's eating less than usual, nor does the doctor, but i'm thinking maybe my milk is no longer as nutritious as it used to be. I'm worried.

    The testing is tomorrow. He won't be able to eat anything for 12 hours before the blood test. Wish him luck with the hunger struggle during tonight. I'll keep you posted on the results.
