Hi,
he is 16 weeks old. He has always been a fussy feeder. i don't think it is reflux - would he be crying more? He only cries when I'm trying to put the bottle in. Eventually a burp may come out and that'll usually be the cause of it. But that could take a while. He used to be on Comfort milk but the last few weeks we couldn't get him to burp and he was really suffering. We changed to a thinner milk and the burps do come up a bit easier now but it can still be difficult. This morning he only took 3 oz, then chugged down 6 oz, then it's just taken me an hour to get 5 oz down him. He takes 3 oz but then it becomes difficult.
At the moment he is taking roughly 28 ozs. He was going sleeping okay, going from 7 pm to 4 am, but the last couple of weeks he has started to wake up at 11.30, 2.30am, 5am. I'm thinking it might be also becuase we've changed to a thinner milk, maybe it's not filling his tummy up enough.... really getting tired now.
Easy looks (roughly) like this..
7 am E - 3-6 oz
A
8.30 am - S - 40 mins
A
10 am - E - 3-6 oz
11.30 am - S - 40 mins
A
1 pm - E - 3-6 oz
2 pm - S - 1.5 hrs ( this only happens sleeping on me)
A
4 pm - E - 3- 6 oz
may have a nap depending on how the day has gone for 40 mins
6 - 7 pm wind down for bed - bath and bottle.
S
11.30 pm - E 3 oz
2.30 am - E 3 oz
5 am - E 3 oz
sigh!
