My baby drinks ready to feed similac bottles if I don't have the breast milk at the moment but I think the formula is heavy for her stomach because she farts and poops heavy all the time. I asked her nurses but they say it's normal but I don't know. I want to try enfamil because doesn't look as heavy as similac but I don't know if switching will hurt her even more. Or if I'm just over thinking it. What would y'all do?
similac is the only formula that is the closet to breast milk. It's normal for New borns to have gas all the time.
They did, but as my pediatrician told me, the first 8-12 weeks are like the 4th trimester and almost all babies have the fussing, crying, screaming, up-all-night gassy pooping issues. I swore up and down both my guys had colic and croup and reflux and everything else 😂😂😂. In the end, Dr. Brown's bottles were doctor recommended and worked well...although a pain to clean. Try to stay calm and patient...It'll pass and you'll barely remember it--Cause you will be so tired. 😂😂😂
Enfamil gentleease worked great for my daughter. Similac is too heavy and Enfamil is thinner. My daughter was so constipated with Similac and right away with Enfamil she was doing great. Or you can also try Similac total comfort.
Did your baby fuss much with enfamil? @erinflaherty818
I used enfamil but yeah, all that fussiness goes down somewhere around 12 weeks.
Random facts!
Did you know that Similac is short for "similar to lactation"?
I don't care what ppl think of me, but I'm seriously considering putting my baby up for adoption. I love her with all of heart, but doing this alone is hard. Every single night she just screams to the top of her lungs and I do everything to soothe her. I don't know what to do at all. I wish I had some kind of help. I don't have a single ounce of help. I don't know a single soul in Minnesota either.
I don't think she gets it.
I swear sometimes I just need to renew my policy to not look at the comments in Facebook. I never used to. I don't know why I started. But the ignorance is real.
So ladies I don't know if you remember on here there was a girl who lost her little boy called archer who died from SIDS?? I just found her on Instagram to discover it wasn't her child it was in fact her nephew?????? I've looked for her on here but she seems to delete her page I don't know if it's because anyone else found out she was lying but I'm literally GOBSMACKED as she wrote a blog and everything about it? Please tell me I wasn't the only deceived by this??
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
