Need some advice: my daughter is 6 weeks and always seems hungry. It's like I feed her and change her diaper constantly like that's all I do. She wants to eat within every hour but her pediatrician told me to just put a little of rice cereal in her formula and space out her feedings to 3 hours because my daughter eats too much too fast and throws up. But my daughter drinks 4oz every about hour and a half- two hours. And she gets really fussy when I don't give her formula when she wants and it gets very frustrating

I was having the same struggles with my 5 month old but as I did everything the pediatrician said, it negatively affected some other part of him so I just started letting him eat as much as he wanted and right now he's at 9 oz. every 3 hours. He's a chubby sucker but sleeps like a dream through the night and has plenty of healthy bowel movements.

@nowmrspost, her pediatrician told me to put a little in there and she does fine with it

@hildreth.amber, see my baby eats a whole lot and has normal diapers like she should but surprisingly isn't over weight and gaining weight exactly how she should be.

@cubanese, what!? I didn't know that. Why would her pediatrician recommend that I do that then? I barely put any in mixed with her formula and water.

I say no to the rice cereal. She could just be going through a growth spurt and wanting more ❤
