what is a good formula for a premmie the one he is supplementing with my breast milk hurts his tummy
I bought it at cvs but I'm sure they have it at other drug stores @katiebrunk
same here. I just rub their tummy and do leg exercises to help. or sometimes I will give them either two oz of Apple or grape juices and two oz of water and it does help because they could be constipated too. but thats all my doc will allow for them
i love dr brown bottles @katiebrunk thats what they gave him in the nicu and i been using them since
he just turnt 2mos yesterday and was 34weeks when he was born i have phenomena so my milk dropped alot so that's why he needs formula more now i was doing good until I got sick @kimberlyyyy
preemies tend to have upset tummies and are usually a little more gassy then normal. but my girls are nine months old and its all they eat. nothing else til their first birthday. I use Dr browns bottles when I feed them.
Oh okay. How old is your preemie/ what gestational age was he born at? I told the nicu staff that I would be taking my son off formula when we got home, and I told his pediatrician.. She was iffy about it at first but I've been fully breastfeeding for the past 9 weeks and he's gaining really well. Depending on your baby's age and how well they're doing you might be able to try strictly breastfeeding with the pediatrician's consent of you want to try that.
that's the one he is on i think it is hurting his tummy because he fuss and has gas @katiebrunk how did your babies do on it ?
my twin daughters were in the nicu for two months and they recommend Enfomil enfacare its ment especially for preemeis
ment to say the formula they have him on hurts his belly it gives him bad gas but i breastfeed too i just want to know what I should ask for when he see his doctor tomorrow which one should i ask them to change it to
OK cool thanks
