No no....you did nothing wrong.....
Not wrong!! You just can not make certain of the amount of formula baby is getting....you cant know for certain how many calories you are giving per feeding! No, you did fine and were fortunate to have one that WOULD nurse a bottle.....and pup is gaining weight and you had to make up lost ground...You are fine and your baby is fine....you can just expect a slower weight gain mainly because you dont know how many calories baby is actually getting per feeding!
