calorie intake
So because my little guy is only 13lbs even at 20 weeks and has only gained 4oz in 2 weeks, his pediatrician wants us to somehow get more calories into him. He sleeps all night (about 12 hours) and he apparently isn't getting enough while he's awake even though he eats all the time. We give him baby food anywhere from 1-2 times a day.
My guy isn't gaining weight either, his nutritionist said I needed to add scoop of formula to the bottle, so instead of two scoops of formula for 4oz water I do three scoops and 4oz water. By adding the scoop it adds more calories per bottle, so he technically isn't drinking more milk, just his bottle is loaded with more calories. He seems to be filling out some, we go tomorrow for weight check.
Maybe take away the baby food and give more formula or breastmilk instead. Baby food is very low calorie and fat. Also maybe try feeding more after a 5-10 minute break and see if you can top him off. Another idea is to add a night/dream feed right before you go to sleep. My LO eats 5-6 oz (mostly 6) 5 times a day right now.
is it wrong of me to be upset my bf works a lot? he works 6 days a week, nights. & on his day off he sleeps all day. i never see him, spend time with him, i’m not intimate with him, nothing. i only get help from him when he’s awake bc he wants to be left alone to sleep which is understandable. he gets mad i complain that he works too much. & i was talking to a girl at my job about it and she said i shouldn’t be mad bc he’s making money & told me who wouldn’t want their man making money? & it’s not even about that it’s the fact i’m a single mom 6 days a week and never spend time w my bf. am i wrong for being upset or should i be happy he’s working a lot?
my baby is 6 weeks old and i noticed he hasnt pooped well today all day he didnt and i was told to give him 1 ounce of water and he did poop but that was only 1 time all day today
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 and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?
I'm.not enjoying being pregnant some days I can't even eat my favourite food anymore I'm getting less sleep even tho I'm only over 10 weeks, feeling weeping and hate the sickness every body says pregnancy is a enjoyable time but it's not all the time 😔
I know a mom who carries her sonn alllll the time. And her Daughters carry him ALL the time as well. He is one and a half and cannot walk! Because they carry him all day. 😠 idk how to help her at this point. He also does not sleep through the night or talk 😞 is that even normal?

@hr she told me to keep with the baby food since he loves it but also add more milk/formula too.
@jess I will have to try that.
We go back in two weeks again for another weight check. I don't pump enough so that's why we supplement. Whether I'm with him or not I make like an ounce for every hour time away basically and less than that when I'm with him and pump after each feeding
