Soooo my buddy has lost almost 2lbs 😩
He’s eating well, acting well, & having normal stools. Dr can’t understand why he lost weight. So she suggested a formula substitute.
- he’s never taken a bottle
- he’s never had formula
This was his face when we tried 😬
We tried multiple bottles. Also tried dropping it into his mouth. But he will latch on to me no problem.
He’s not crying he just looks disgusted 😂 I said buddy are you going to be high class and make me buy a $80 formula 😭

Are you the only one giving him a bottle? Leave the room if you have to. They really just want the source.

We tried that too. After he wouldn’t latch onto the second bottle

Hmmm. What about a sippy cup? You can fortify breastmilk to increase the calories. There's a recipe for each formula but I used to add 1/2 tsp per 3oz if I remember. So it will mostly taste like breastmilk. Perhaps a specialist referral as well

I tried dropping the formula into his mouth just by spraying and he didn’t like it. But we are going to do labs. They watched me feed him for 20min and could hear his gulps so they aren’t sure it’s a feeding issue. Also giving him vitamins. And reevaluating my diet. We set up another weight check Friday and then we will move forward

@knockout, I was just going to say try adding some good fats to your diet. I hope you guys can figure it out!

@knockout you can't add fat to your breastmilk, but you can change the type of fats. Lots of nuts, avocado, oils, etc. Some say hand Express first so he gets more fatty hind milk when he's actually eating, but that is controversial. Others say hind milk is really mixed throughout rather than at the end.
Hopefully its something simple. Plateauing would make sense, losing doesn't.

Also instead of buying full cans. Ask his dr if they have any samples of different kinds

What if you pump put have formula and half breast milk maybe. When I was going to switch formula for my baby he wouldn’t drink it either and they suggested doing half and half and every few days slowly lowering the first formula till it was completely just the new one. Idk mama just an idea hope it helps!
OliviaМама троих детей
He doesn’t take a bottle at all. Even if it has breastmilk. We’ve tried 8 brands before when I was pumping. He let 73oz get donated because he wouldnt eat what I pumped, only from latching

@knockout, o man :/ I’m sorry mama I hope you find something that helps!

My babe is the same way. Gunna have to try a new formula. 🤦🏻♀️
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 just want this pregnancy to be healthy and stress free. This is very special for my boyfriend because he’s been in prison pretty much half of his life & never got to experience any of this. He’s so happy right now. He’s been home for 2 years now & worked his way to the top & now we’re having a baby 😊 He keeps telling me he wants to go to all the parenting classes & everything. He’s coming with me Monday just to watch me do more bloodwork 😂🥰. The way we met is so crazy but as he said in the end, the best part of it all was meeting me & now we’re having a baby.
Hey ladies question so I’m messing with this guy and me and him been talking for a minute and we have been having sex and like some stuff is off like he don’t want me at his house and he’s 30 and like he comes round only at night time and like after we done having sex he hurry up and wash his self off like his face and mouth and penis with soap and when we kiss he want me to wipe my lipgloss off first Does these sound like signs of him cheating and him having someone back at home ??????
Okay so I have a question for you ladies. Before my boyfriend and I were dating, we were bestfriends for a while. We always hung out but we never tried dating. Well I was dating this guy for a while, and got pregnant and he told me he wanted nothing to do with it, and told me to kill it. I would NEVER do such a thing. So he broke up with me and moved to Indy. Well when I told my friend, he said he would help me. Well we spent so much time together, that we fell in love. Yes I fell in love with my bestfriend. We are now dating and he is SOOO into the pregnancy! He is even going go adopt the baby. His friends all know, and his parents just found out. How do you explain to his family that yes it's not biologically his, but it is still? You know what I'm saying ? Lol. He is the one who was with me though all of this and he will be here for baby too. I just feel like a whore, I know I'm not... But still. Help !
Soooooo jeb has been i guess clingy. For the last 3-4 days he has always tried to crawl to me or crawl out his room to me. Or he is in his walker and rolls over to me. He is now in his room crying at the door because he cant get out to get to me. He will be 1yr in a few weeks. Is this a leap thing or what??? #boymom #ftm

The labs will be sent over today and they are going to call me. His blood sugar level was normal which is good
