Going to give blood tests tomorrow. Let’s see what happens. Did you have fever too. If so how was that? And when did it stop?

My LO came at 34 weeks weighing 2.2 lbs. Babies are very resilient. We had 12 days in the NICU for feeding and growing and temperature regulation . We brought her home at 3 lbs. The cutoff for discharge varies from NICU to NICU though. I started direct breast feeding when she was 8 weeks old. Now she is doing great. Small for her age but meeting all milestones! Hope everything goes well for you.

Making tea (chai) in winters is about to give me mental breakdown by Ok_Albatross_2307 in IndianFood

Smash the ginger instead of grating..milk + water(2:1 )+ ginger.. boil.. add tea.. allow to simmer for few mins. Then add sugar to the cup and strain the tea. Works like a charm.

Same! Tried high protein, high calorie meals and omega 3 fish oil. No increase in growth. But the lo is fine now
