I'm a little nrouevs about the amount of breast milk my child is drinking per day. Upon returning to work her weight gain trickled off and she is only gaining about two pounds every two months now. She will be 6 months this Saturday and we have were at 15lbs 11oz or so. She was born 8lbs 4oz. On a good day she will drink 9oz, on a bad day she will only drink 1oz. We started her on solids right 4 months with cereal, sweet potatoes, apples, pears and butternut squash. She loves to eat solids and she will go to town when I come home but she so cranky during the day and we've TRIED EVERYTHING. Every bottle sold we own it. We've seen the lactation consultant or Dr. doesn't seem too concerned. What can I do to get her to drink more during the day?
