Hi
Susan,
This
is indeed puzzling. The babe needs a visit to the doctor to have medical reasons
excluded, if it hasn't already been done, including bag urine for culture etc.
However, the fact that the baby regained wt in hospital and then lost it again
at home does seem to point to a feeding management issue. Is Mum feeding the
baby often enough, or leaving the baby on the breast long enough? Does the baby
have a tongue tie (these babies feed well from the bottle, but find it hard to
strip a breast)? Is Mum hearing baby at night or is she slightly sedated by the
Tegretol, or the baby sedated by it? I assume someone has checked if Tegretol is
ok with BF?
Warm
regards,
Nicole Carver.
