Failure to Thrive - Part 7

Evie had her one year check up and she made it to 15lbs but the doctor is still not happy so she's scheduled to come back in 6 weeks.  To say I'm done with this hyper vigilance of her weight gain is an understatement.

Her chart shows a nice spike in weight gain but she's still clearly under the norm:

I hope we don't have to go every 6 weeks for the entire year!  She's eating much better now and eats with us at every meal with an additional snack time.  I continue to breastfeed her 5-6 times per day.  We're looking to high calorie foods like Sweet Potato Casserole and Whole Milk Yogurt to pack on the weight.  More in six weeks!
