Good afternoon doc My baby girl was born with 1.8 kg preterm. At 6 weeks her weight was 3.022 kg At 10 weeks her weight was 4 kg Now at 14 weeks her weight was 5.1 kg She was breastfeeding till one month after that only formula fed. I used Aptamil gold. I had nil milk production after one month even after supplementation and protein rich diet. I have consulted the gynaec for the same as well. She said it might be due to a hormonal imbalance. Please don't judge me that I should be ebf the child. I really tried hard and I could not help. My girl child is 3.5 months now with 5.1 kg weight and I am extremely worried. As After 6 months, the weight of the child doesn't increase at the same pace as during 3 months. My padetrician didn't advise me for the MCT oil and I was not aware of it till yesterday . I don't know why and feel guilty about it I have consulted other padetrician ,he might have advised it .Can I use MCT for my baby if yes what are dosages? If not, what can I do please reply
