Okay, need opinions. I am a ftm so dont be rude. My son is 12 days old and from like 4 days old he has been eating 4oz bottles every threeish hours, because he acts hungry. The past couple nights he has been so colicy and wont sleep at night. Am i over feeding him or?
@sammeeandbaby jus keep doing what ur doing. Ur doing jus fine. Being a mommy is scary n new n all babies r different. I hope everything is good. Oh u might call her n tell the nurse what's going on n they go tell the Dr n they might have u come in or jus tell u what they think is best.
@sammeeandbaby u should see what Dr says but most likely she will tell u to try something that's gentle more on his belly. I have to use gentle for all my kids they do jus fine.
My baby was on enfamil at the hospital as well but she's now on Similac and does great @sammeeandbaby
It could be the type of formula he's eating I would bring it up to the doctor but I wouldn't say you're overfeeding him @sammeeandbaby
@tayler we are using Enfamil newborn. Because its the one he's been taking since day 1 at the hospital.
I wouldn't say you're over feeding him if he eats it all! I give mine 2.5 oz every 3 hours, she won't eat anymore. You could try feeding him a little less and see if it helps. Also if you're formula feeding it could be the brand, may need something more gentle.
@twins1987 Okay i just have 0 idea why all of a sudden he is so upset at night.
@sammeeandbaby No lol I had to go and read the post again she was taking 2 to 3 ounces around 4 day's but I still don't feel like you're feeding him too much though
@twins1987 since she was 4 days old? He hasnt been Colicy until the past couple nights, its horrible.
@beemommyof3 okay
