Mag had two viruses back to back last week. Really wiped her out.
Resulting in a loss of 3 pounds. She's back below the third percentile.
I know it's because of being sick but I hate set backs!! :hairpull:
oh thats no good it really sucks when a virus can mess our little ones up so badly

Ugh, I hate that. Can you give her extra cals or maybe some pediasure or carnation inst breakfast to help her gain back what she lost? Hope she can feel better soon!

I am so sorry, Lena. Backslides suck. :sad5: Especially when you work so hard to grab even an ounce on a critter, only to see it and many more go so easily.
You got her up there once, it will happen again. I would try the pediasure or maybe even nutren jr. with fibre. It is our supplement and it works. ;) Nothing wrong with supplementing to get her going again.
Is she better now? Poor critter having back to back viruses. :hairpull:
:hug:

That must be so frustrating. 3 lbs is a big loss for such a little girl.

So Mag went for round three. Dh weighed her last night and said I didn't want to know how much she weighs.
Off to make high calorie milkshakes and brownies. I'm sure to gain twenty pounds too.
