Story of My Life
Well Parker still isn't sleeping or eating. Sometimes I feel like I'm just crazy and maybe I just have no clue what I'm doing, but I kind of refuse to just believe this so instead I am headed to the Dr. today. He just grunts and groans most of the day and I just don't know what to do. The formula thing has been kind of a joke. I've tried combining breast milk and formula and he still wants nothing to do with it. So he is still at just one bottle a day, which has been kind of a joke cause Frank's worked late all week and since he won't take it from me I've been hauling dinner and Parker up to Frank's work every night. I don't know how much of it actually ends up in his mouth, but we try. Anyway we'll see what the dr. says, what do you do?

what kind of bottle are you using? With both of my kids I had to try a few different ones until I found one that worked best for them. Kayston liked the Playtex ones with the bags and Bry liked the Avent ones. Also, you might try a different formula. If he has a sensitive tummy(which it sounds like he does) then you might want to try something with reduced lactose. I had to put Bry on Gentle ease for that reason. Have you tried Mylicon drops? They're drops that you put in their bottle and it helps a TON with gas. I used them with both of my kiddos.
ReplyDeleteAnyway, good luck and remember...none of us know what we're doing. You just have to keep trying different things until you find one that works. You are a GREAT mom!!
Hey!! Ya Bailee REFUSED bottles or formula, I would go work at the soccer place and bran would have her with a bottle and she would scream and not drink it!! I thought I was doing something wrong for so long, but she never wanted a bottle until she was like 7 months old i think she finally took one with juice, she never would take formula either! So you are not alone on that! Kathy leaves on Wednesday though, we all need to get together and do something though!
