My baby girl

I debated whether or not to post this, but I am going to go ahead and do it. It's so hard to ask for help for your own "problems"

Caleigh had her 6 month well check on Wednesday. For the last month or two I have been concerned about her because she is so small. To give you an idea of exactly how small she is, she still wears size 0-3 month clothes. My kids NEVER wear that size longer than about 3 weeks. I had to actually buy her more clothes because her 4-6 onesies/outfits I originally purchased for her were getting a little bit ratty. When she was weighed, I was shocked to learn that she only weighs 11 lb 11 oz. For a 6 month old baby, this is way too small. When her Dr. plotted her growth on the chart, she was way below normal. He strongly recommended that I start supplementing and requested that I keep a feeding journal to bring to her next weight check. We both feel supplementing will cause her to gain weight, but he did warn me that if she does not gain a "significant amount" of weight in the next 2 weeks, he would hospitalize her.

So far, it seems like supplementation is working, but please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. She seems like she is gaining weight well, so my main concern is getting/keeping her (back) on track with her developmental milestones.
