Really hate seeing my son struggle with this acid reflux. He just seems miserable , he’s constantly throwing up . Poor baby; at least he has an emergency appointment with the doctor tomorrow morning . So fingers crossed we can start meds and get him feeling better . He wanted to try him on a formula on top of me breastfeeding. But that didn’t seem to help . I’m scared they may say i can’t breastfeed him anymore . Cause he throws up after formula and my milk. Anyone else dealt with or dealing with this ?
@ibirthgreatness, Awww! Well I hope he gets what he needs
@lizibear84, he ended up having to go to urgent care to be seen . Doctor had to leave so they told me to go there but urgent care didnt know his history and went to start him on meds without knowing. So I have to wait for his doctor to see him. They didn’t feel comfortable giving meds at 7 weeks old
I think am having the same issue too. Am exclusively breastfeeding and I feed on demand. My baby spit up alot. And when she does the milk is cradle. Even after spit up she still wanna nurse
@beemommyof3, I’ll definitely have to try that . Thank you ! I would have never known
@beemommyof3, no I didn’t know about that will that help with the fast let down ? Do you still have your group can you add me
@beemommyof3, yes sometimes. Sometimes he chokes on it. Or sometimes it’s super slow I had to massage it to get it to let down
@beemommyof3, sorry was feeding him. I’ll take him down gradually and see how he does and let his doctor know. But he definitely showed signs of wanting more . He wouldn’t even suckle on my boob or the pacifier he would continue eating . But I’ll try it and see how he does. I just want him better
@beemommyof3, both since they wanted to try soy, But I want to go back to exclusively breast-feeding
I would do only 2 ounces. Most likely he isnt still hungry. What they want is to suckle for comfort and he cant do that with a bottle. If you put a nipple on a. gallon of milk he will drink it because he wants to suckle. Not for hunger purposes.
Are you burping every half ounce and does it take 20 to 30 minutes to give the bottle
@beemommyof3, that what his doctor has him on when we do bottles . He was doing 2 ounces but it wasn’t enough for him
He is only a month old. He doesnt need that much milk in a sitting. I think pacefeeding would eliminate the reflux.
@beemommyof3, when he Eats from the bottle he doing 3 to 3 1.5 ounces . & eats every 2-3 hours
@lizibear84, thank you so much. I’m keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow’s appointment
@ibirthgreatness, Oh no! I’m so sorry. I hope he gets the right medicine to help quickly! Poor baby
@lizibear84, it’s crazy you can smell it as soon as he throws up (the acid)
@lizibear84, he throws up even more now than before
@lizibear84, yes they put him on soy to see if it would help, it made him worse
Did they rule out a dairy allergy? My friends son they thought had reflux and it turned out to be a dairy allergy cause when he got older he would have explosive diarrhea every night.
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...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
IUI Monday!!
So today I went in for my routine bloodwork and ultrasound, and found out that I have three follicles at 17mm! Plus another two at 15mm. When leaving the clinic my FS said to take another dose of gonal-f and come back tomorrow to check to see how big they got and that we would do the iui on Wednesday. Well, after getting home, taking my gonal-f and going out to shovel snow (lol) I get a call saying that I am SURGING!!! I haven't ovulated on my own, or even come close to it in years...
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...
