Baby who doesn’t gain weight

T2 is still 6 kilos after 2 months. *sigh* I do hope she doesn’t fall under the category of ‘failure to thrive’ because that would really be worrying as we not only don’t have Medicare supplement but honestly, a healthy baby is all we ask for!

Everyone who looks at her says she doesn’t look too bad and her eyes are bright and she is moving around as normal, flapping her hands and legs, playing with her fingers, sticking them into all sorts of places, grabbing objects and exploring etc. She just can’t sit yet but since she was 5 weeks early, that is ok too.

Failure to thrive may be caused by several factors including an infection in the gut or some growth in her intestines that is not allowing them to absorb the important nutrients that she needs to grow. It could also be a metabolic disorder that disallows the child to derive energy from its food.

If T2 doesn’t gain weight by month 7, then she’ll have to be hospitalised and fed through a tube. People tell me all the time that she is fine and will be fine, but how can a mother not worry.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Mamapumpkin spent 7 years in London committing crimes to gain her Bartlett degree in Architecture. She then spent 7 years as a Stay At Home Mom raising her children as documented in this blog of over 15 years thereafter returning to the Corporate World stronger than ever as the Country Director of a British Multinational. She sets out to prove to all, that you can have anything and everything that you want; if you have that fire of desire burning within and the drive to work hard. Even better with much love.

Mamapumpkin has not only grown corporate businesses successfully in the past but has grown not one but TWO network marketing businesses in the notorious MLM (Multi-Level Marketing) industry, achieving success in under 2 years. She believes in the MLM business model but realises the DRASTIC PITFALLS and great stigma attached to it, understanding EXACTLY WHY the majority would shy away (or RUN for their lives) from ANY MLM business. But open your eyes and take time to understand it intellectually, remove your hang-ups, confirm your research, and you may just want to seize an opportunity. She did. And no, she never went about chasing people for sales. She had a sophisticated system work for her through technology and a smartphone.

She now impacts lives authentically with proven strategies amassed through the last decade of her own transformation offering online coaching programmes and always supports the underprivileged. She believes that we can all have a life of our own desires to enable real contribution into the world. But first, one needs to understand what this all means.

A beautiful life without limits.

If you wish to learn some tools to propel your life forward guaranteed, be brave enough to make contact as her life's purpose is to build people. She operates through a discovery call after which she will commit to helping you. Or not.

Most lose out on an opportunity because they are afraid they would be sold to, conned or whatever fear resides in their brain without even trying. And that's on them.

Mamapumpkin is a living testimony that women really can have a lot. Being financially and time free has enabled her to travel the world anytime, anywhere, doing anything, and she spends most of her days with her children, having fun, and supporting others wherever she can. Also having fun.
Show your support and spread the love!
