Thankyou
Michelle, I'm not exclusively BF at the moment. When I had almost no milk I started on a bottle a day of formula, didn't even have anything to express, I tried and nothing ever happened. But my milk supply is slowly getting better, we are having a few issues still with her not wanting to feed.
Ashley, She is really uncomfy. She is normally a really happy baby, so smiley until she has fed and going for a sleep. She still seems to have issues after her A time when I put her down for sleep (does that make sense?) Her nappies aren't green. They are yellow but not typical yellow, not sure how to describe it. She does spew alot, today really bad. It's alot like cottage cheese and smells odd too. That's why I've wondered about reflux. When you say back arching do you mean when feeding? We have a lot of that. She'll feed for a bit then arch off and cry, go back on for a bit arch off and cry. We go round and round like that so she gets very windy.
Today she has been very bad with throwing up so I went and bought a small tub of soya formula for her bottle, gave it to her tonight and was shocked at how easy she was to put down. Back to normal. We had been going through a rigmarole of feeding her, BF or bottle, winding her for about 30 mins, putting her down and after about 30 seconds she would be squirming, bringing her legs up, crying and seemed to be in pain. Once she was sick, burped and farted she would finally settle down. Tonight she had the soya, I burped her in 5 mins, layed her down and she went off just like she used to
So I was thinking of doing a non dairy diet this next couple of weeks. I was going to have soya. Is it all dairy or just cows? Can I have goats? What about as an ingredient in things? Just want to make sure I do it right
Sharon, lurve you too
