Okay,
I, as most of you who have read my posts have gathered, am one of the most neurotic mothers you will ever meet. Worrying is my favorite past time. Now that I have a baby, it’s my fulltime job which is normal to an extent, but I worry myself sick over Kate. 
I’ve been weighing her at the ped every week her whole life because I was so unprepared with the uncertainty of breastfeeding(not knowing how much she’s getting), that that was my saving grace in knowing she was getting enough. I’ve always been paranoid that if I didn’t, she would be losing unbeknownst to me and I would continue bf her like all was fine and dandy. Well, I was so excited to weigh her today because she LOOKED like she had been chunking up prettygood but when I put her on the scale she had only gained two ounces in a week. Ugh, this stinks. I know I should be grateful b/c she’s gaining period and I don’t want to seem pouty(sp?) b/c so many babes on this site have had issues with losing but is this the beginning of the end? Has anyone experienced these low dips with their los? I’m a new mom and very impressionable and the nurse today was horrified when she weighed her saying she HAS to be gaining 7 ounces a week at least.
I started inwardly freaking out.Anyway, I’ve been on TED for almost three weeks and the menu, as most of you know, is a tad limited. Could that be it? I TRY and eat as often as I can but this stuff gets old real fast after awhile so I’m not in a hurry sometimes to run for another potatoe
Will someone just tell me to stop worrying or something because I just don’t want to miss a red flag just because I was too stubborn to stop bf. Thanks.
