I am worried so I am wondering if this has happened to anyone.My daughter was 8,2 when she was born and at her 2 week check up she was under her birth weight.The doctor said it could be because she sucks so hard she is burning more calories than she is getting,my daughter would take 10 min to drink half an ounce and my doctor said she should be drinking 2 ounces in 10 min.She said for me to try a stage 2 nipple so the flow would be faster.I have my appointment on Tuesday to weigh her again to see if she has gained any weight.She has been drinking better since I changed the nipple,but I am still worried.How much should she be drinking,she is 3 weeks today.She drinks 3 ounces sometimes 2 at other times.Any thoughts would be great as I am a wreck
