🚨Question🚨
My son had an appointment yesterday with the GI to make sure everything was OK with his Acid Reflux (I was yayyyy!)
but I ended up asking him is my son (3 months old) suppose to still waking up every 3 hours to feed....even at night. He said no, then he ask me how much I was feeding him I said 3oz...he asked me why so little. i told him the DUMB ASS ER NURSE told me when i was feeding him 4oz it was too much...he kindly informed me that he is suppose to b drink around 5-6 ounces (poor baby I been starving him 😭) so yesterday on our way home he started crying because he was hungry I gave him 2 oz on the go and another 3 when we got home ( about 30 mind after the 2oz) he slept for 4 hours. His next bottle we gave him 5 oz, he sleep for 6 hrs basically thru the night. Now today during the day I still been given him the 5oz but he still been waking up every 3 hours. I was wondering am I still suppose to feed him every 3? I haven't.... I been letting him cry it out til he falls asleep about an hour and feed him again at the 4th hour ...because I don't want to over feed him. Is he waking up and crying because he's actually hungry ( he's not chewing his hands).... or because he's so use to the every 3 hours?!?! His doctor said give him the 5 and eventually space out his feeding, but am I suppose to space it out for him or let him do it on his own? ( mind you I have the type of baby that's I'll eat as long as you keep feeding him he doesn't care if he's full or not)
Well if ur feeding formula it stretches their stomach compared to a breastfeeding baby...so he might need more to fill full. I say go by baby cues if he shows interest feed him. I wouldnt make him wait if he wants it. He will turn away when hes full or throw it up.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Just so mad at my husband before we moved he promised he would put our son to bed at night and get him his bottle. Then promised that on the mornings he doesn't work or the ones he works later he would feed him breakfast so I can have my relax time before having him all day long. Then every morning he is here he says he's not going to get him breakfast because he doesn't want to and sits there telling me to go make and feed our son breakfast. Then every time I remind him of his promise he rolls ...
Okay my son is 12 days old I just have a question I'm breastfeeding him we're doing it every couple of hours the doctor actually told me to feed him every hour and every third hour to give him formula because of his weight but I'm feeding him and it seems like he's just not getting full with me. We have been to the doctor couple of times this week because he had to get his jaundice levels checked but it seems like even after feeding off of me all day he acts as tho he's starving and he's still o...
Mommies I have a question. My son (6 days old) had a Drs appointment today. She told me I had to feed him every 2 hours instead of 3. The problem is Isaiah only wants to feed on his time (every 3 hours) . I try and wake him up but he just falls right back to sleep. He's been that way since he was born. What do I do?
I feed on demand. I know his signs that he is hungry.
