i need some advice, my LB is normally on 5oz of milk every 3-4 hours (doesnt always finish the 5oz) and never had a problem with wanting more before now, my SIL had him one night over the weekend and because ''she thought it was best'' she give him 7oz of milk andd ruined the 3-4 hourly routine and now when i give him a feed (5oz) hes crying for more all the time when i know he doesnt actually want it as its coming back up (sick) as hes over feeding and hes crying every 2 hours or so , how do i get him back to his usual amount and routine?
No problem lovely :) my girl does the same because shes got bad reflux so we just try pace her :) @danielleallen110 xx
Maybe give him the 7oz but do little breaks every couple of oz to wind him, that way he will pace himself x
ok thanks ladies, i have been giving him the 7oz but he is being sick after it so thought it might have been to much for him x
If he's hungry than feed him what he needs the routine will constantly change so if needs more give it him don't withhold food from a baby ever because you want them to be in a routine you don't start until they're on solids and cut down milk intake but whilst so little just feed feed feed you'll see in the long run a content baby is a happy and full fed baby X
Maybe try 6oz instead of 7oz just to start if he brings up the 7oz xx @danielleallen110
