What now with my baby?
The worst thing imaginable happened this morning, my baby girl projectile vomited and stopped breathing, thankfully after a few minutes she came back around again.
Were in the hospital and all the nurses could tell me was that is my fault because i give her too much milk (5ounces every 3-4 hours) she has that much because thats how much shes hungry for.
But now theyve told me only give her two ounces and let her cry if shes still hungry after 🤬🤬
I hate this hospital with a passion

Erm sorry what? Ive always formula fed on demand with both my babies and never had an issue. It seems to me it was probably more the fact shes been unwell to begin with and I cant believe theyre blaming you. Hope you are ok xx

honestly feed on demand them telling you to limit a newborn is insane. I think this is all down to her being run down and unwell to begin with. Whoever said that to you shouldnt be working with babies my god 🤦♀️ imagine she said that to someone who hadnt had children before its so damaging. In my experience i havent had much good memories with midwives even the one who was helping me through my induction was absolutely useless and would have let me give birth on the induction ward had i not shouted at her for telling me i wasnt in labour when they got someone else to check i was 5cm 🙄 xx

I was in that exact same position with Archie, I was labouring for three days and the midwife wouldn't check and said it was a UTI, she was born 2 hours later

Ermm what?
Ada drinks 4 ozs every 2-4 hours.
I feed her on demand just like i did with Maya that was breast fed
Ada is also combination fed
2ozs and let her cry wtf. Please report whoever told you that.

There's so many things wrong with this hospital that it doesn't even surprise me they said it, it just makes me angry

Wth! Can you ask to be transferred to a different hospital? X

Only if I self discharge and take her myself but she's got to be monitored constantly all night and it'd mean starting the process over again x

bloody hell I hope she’s better real quick! Take no notice, you know what your doing. Hopefully you’ll get better ones on the shift change ❤️

😳 noooo they didnt !!!!! What a joke. As ifff they blamed you. Dont let them think it's ok to do that. Your being a mum and shes been poorly, if shes left crying because shes hungry surely that will be more stressful for you and baby! Hope she gets better soon big hugs ❤❤

Exactly, I set them straight, said if she's hungry she's hungry, my job as her mum is to protect her and give her what she needs, not watch her sufferx
