How much should a 3 week old be drinking?? He was 8 lb 15 oz at birth, up to 9 lb 12 oz this past Tuesday. I'm breast feeding and supplementing and I'm pretty sure he's hitting a growth spurt. At night I give him a bottle of formula to try to get him to sleep (he wakes up every hour to hour and a half the past few nights😖) I give him a 4 oz bottle of formula and he sucks it down. Tonight after the bottle I nursed him again bc he was clearly still hungry... How much is too much?? He's been super gassy and uncomfortable too. First time mommy just wanting my son to be happy. Please help 😔

No. I can't. All he does is eat and it's too much. I get no sleep. So I need to supplement him sometimes.
Just breastfeed at night if you can! If you can breastfeed just fine there's really no reason to supplement. 4oz sounds like a lot to me though. I usually game my kids 2oz at that age. You can over feed them formula but you can't over feed them breast milk.
when breastfeeding I know that the policy is to absolutely feed on demand no matter what any one tells you, baby's tummy knows how much breast milk it needs. but since you supplement I'm not sure what the rules are on that.
Look up the size of a stomach of how old ur baby is. Whatever you produce is enough
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...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
