Newborn weight gain issues
My son was born three weeks ago at 7.13 lbs via C-section. Since then he has lost a lot of weight and we even stayed in the hospital for an extra day to monitor his weight. At today's appointment he still only weighs 7.9 lbs. Has anyone else had this issue with their LO or have any advice? If he doesn't gain more weight in 2 weeks they're going to start doing blood tests on him.
My feeding schedule is 2-4 oz every 1-2 hours. He goes through at least 10 diapers a day and isn't sick. He was originally breastfed but now is on formula for the past week and a half and has only gained 6 oz.
