Ladies Please Pray For My Son && Me , iM Literally About To Shut This NICU Down. Since My Son Was Born On The 10th @ 7:39PM They Started Feeding Him The Next Morning (Formula) Usually They Wait 24Hours && They Had Him Basically Taking 2 ounces (32Weeker Measuring 34Weeks At Birth) Because Of This He Had A Spitting Up Problem (His Tummy is Only So Little) So They Wanted To Try My Milk (He Went To BreastMilk) Since The Switch He Hasnt Had Any Spit Ups But His Tummy Will Become Very Bloated Causing Them To Be Alarmed and Stop His Feedings For 24 hours , An EveryTime This Happens He Ends Up Having Alot Of Gas. I TOLD THEM TO SWITCH BACK TO FORMULA , TO SOMETHING THAT HELPS WITH GAS . Since This Is Happening Very Very Often , But All They Want To Tell Me is Ohh BreastMilk is the best BLAH BLAH BLAH. YES I UNDERSTAND YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT. BUT IF I SEE THAT MY MILK IS THE CAUSE OF HIM BEING SO CONSTIPATED AND GASSY WHY NOT FUCKING CHANGE HIS MILK. This is The Only Thing Holding Us Back From Going Home. I'm About Ready To Ask Them To Send Us SomeWhere Else Because Clearly What You Guys Are Doing Here iSnt Helping With His Constipation.

@crunchymomma, they have one here in the NICU , I don't understand how these people operate. I guess they are trying to make sure he doesn't get a infection in his stomach. which on the xrays they have done it showed everything in the correct place only thing it showed was he had alot of air && gas causing the bloating in his stomach. which happens alot then the stop the feedings , put him back on iv fluids and once he poops it's stomach is back normal. they also have a tube down his nose to his stomach they check before they feed him to see if he's digested his milk && he has every feeding. they are also feeding every 3 hrs he eats at 8,11,2,5
call a lactation consultant up to speak to the doctor. breastfed babies ALWAYS go 3-5 days without pooping. also, the babies belly isn't big enough for 2oz right now. he's not constipated, he just doesn't have poop to evacuate from his body. a breastfed baby usually uses ALL the nutrients in breastmilk, since it's only made of things the baby needs. if there's no waste from what you eat, there's no waste to evacuate from you body. your hospitals lactation consultant can explain this to the doctor and possibly convince him to discharge your baby.
@crunchymomma, yes since he was 5 days old hes been on the breast milk && having this same problem since
@crunchymomma, he went 3 days without pooping when they stopped his feedings one time. && yes this is the only reason we are here && it sucks because they don't seem to want to find out the cause of him doing this && yes damn near 2 oz and they went up so fast he wasn't even 3 days old yet smh
also, by "Constipated" what do you mean? how long is he going without pooping?
they're giving a newborn 2oz? they should know that is WAY to much for his belly, and honestly probably the cause of his problems.
gas and a bloated stomach is not a reason to keep a baby in the nicu
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...
finally found him!
My husband hasn't seen or spoken to his father since he was a kid. About 12 years ago he walked out.
I don't know what to do, I have fed him like 6 times since 9:30 and he still seems to want more. But he keeps spitting up and spitting it out after awhile. And won't sleep and just cries and shoves his hands in his mouth and opens his mouth. Then he falls asleep for a bit and I put him down and 5 mins later he's crying. 😞
So my poor baby boy has been extremely constipated ever since we started him in whole milk. I have to help him poop basically and then there's blood. I gave him some prunes a little bit ago and that helped a lot. I'm just wondering if there's something else I can do to prevent constipation. Also, he was on similac alimentum for the first 10 months of his life due to a milk protein allergy. We switched him back to regular similac with no problems. But could the constipation be because he's not to...
son getting out of car seat
So a couple days ago my son started getting himself out of his car seat while we are on the road. He will be 2 years old May 27th. He pushes the chest clip all the way down and pulls his arms and shoulders out of the straps but is still buckled at the waist. Today he did it 4 times, we had to pull over every time. What do you guys do when they start doing this? My Britax came with these long rubber strap covers but I took them off a while ago when he was to small f...
ask them to switch him to smaller, more frequent feedings.you're the mom, you should have a day. and talk to the lactation consultant, ask for her help.
