Hello ladies, I have been MIA for some time now due to no internet coverage.
Anywho....My son had his 9 month check up this morning. Up until today my sons doc has been very breastfeeding supportive. My sons weight has hit a plateau and is currently 20lbs 9oz and is 29inch tall. His doctor feels as if he should be putting on more weight and she feels as if his 8+ nursing sessions a day is too many. He currently only has baby food at dinner and munches on things like graham crackers and puffs here and there through out the day. She said that she wants me to bring it down to only 3 nursing sessions a day and no night nursing's!! I was in such shock I said nothing. I am upset and confused. He isn't under weight and he is meeting all his milestones perfectly. She made another appointment in 6 weeks for him to come in for a weight check.
Should I wean him down to three? Should I add more food?(I am afraid that more food will force him to wean which I don't want) Should I just keep on doing what I am doing and deal with the doctor differently?
TIA
