I Need some advice😞
My Baby will be 3 months on September 1st... Currently I give her Similac advanced. Her last check up was August 2nd and weighed 11.11oz... The pediatrician told me to give her 3.5 oz every 2.5 hours and if i give her 4oz then feed every 3 hours...lately I've been having so much trouble with her because I give her 3.5 oz and when she finishes it, by 30 minutes she wants more and I try to distract her by playing with her or rocking her but she won't stop crying.. I change her diaper, I check if she's cold or hot but she keeps on crying to the point where she chokes for crying so much... I don't know what to do.. Because if I give her 4oz... She still cries and cries and I know she's hungry because she's always chewing on her hand and when I carry her she tries to suck on my face. I'm just worried to feed her so much..I don't want her to be obese😞
WIC is bullshit. They're always on a kick about something ridiculous.
@val746416, omg don't worry about wic they can be really dumb. Let your daughter eat what she needs
Honey don't worry wic told me the same with my daughter but she was born over 9lbs they just expect every baby to be a certain weight but it's not gonna happen every baby is different don't let them discourage you if you feel like she's hungry feed her you know best mama good luck and keep your head up
@ecahanes i guess because when I was getting wic. They told me to watch out because over feeding makes them obese... I know she's just a baby but I use to be very obese so I guess I'm scared for her to go through what I went through... I'm gonna try feeding feeding her a little more and see how it goes... Thank you☺
My son is one month and weighs 9lbs 8 oz she seems right on track not overweight to me
I cannot take all this fucking crying!! It is driving me in fucking sane!!!
Literally EVERYTHING I do she cries. Feed her? Cry. Cuddle her? Cry. Rock her? Cry. Bathe her? Cry. Give her the toys? Cry. Gave her Tylenol because maybe she's teething , she cries. Give her something cold for her gums guess what you guys?? She's still freaking crying.
I'm done!
Bad mommy!!! :(
I dropped my phone on my baby's head this morning when I was nursing her!! :*( She cried, I cried... It was a cry fest!! :(
omg... I'm so depressed my child cries more than she doesnt..The only time she's not crying is when she's alsleep.. but she only sleeps 30 minutes each time. she won't sit in her carseat, her crib, pack n play , her swing, bouncer nothing!!! I have to hold ger 24/7 even when she's sleeping or else she will wake up. I'm tired I don't get any sleep nothing soothes her I don't even remember the last time I had enough time to bathe :'( I love her so much but this is so challenging
My baby girl does not let me do anything all day 😭 I'm lucky if everything is done before my s.o gets home , she cried so I pick her up to feed her and change her diaper and once she's on my breast she eats and I burp her put her down and she'll cry I get her again and she's on my breast not even latched on just smelling my boobs 😭 I'm like girl really lmao she wants me to carry her or be with her all day , girl I wish I could lmao
Opinions on hungrier baby milk? My girl is drinking well over 30 oz in 24 hours. I tried her with water inbetween feeds but she just won't settle in till she has milk as she's hungry not thirsty. She's awake like 18 hours a day 😭
Feed your baby when she is hungry. I felt the same way at first but it doesn't matter. My son is 3 months and eat around 4 to 5 oz about every three hours but honestly I feed him on demand. They will let you know when they need to eat. He weights 15 lbs but and my doctor isn't worried at all. He is a healthy but not fat. Just remember they aren't mobile right now so the weight will just pack on until they can crawl/walk.
