Breastfeeding Doctor said to Quit

by Blair
(Dallas, Tx.)

My daughter's pediatrician told me to quit breastfeeding our one month old because she wasn't gaining weight fast enough and then to come back in a month to check her weight. Well i didn't listen and continued breastfeeding her and she gained 3 pounds at the next weight check up! I think the best thing you can do for your baby is to nurse them as long as you can and they are willing. Lynlee is now 2 years and as smart as ever and we now have a five month old, Briley, whos is exclusively breast fed as well. :)
