IzzyDsMama: Prior to these episodes getting this bad, she was nearly draining 2 1/2oz-3oz a bottle so in the beginning I was offering her that much. I've now dropped it to 2oz a bottle as she barely finishes it in a sitting, and I didn't want to be wasting my breast milk (whatever I pump extra I put in a freezer bag and store away).
I've been writing down when she's eating, how much she's eating and the pattern is bothersome. It is for sure practically ever 2 hours, sometimes a little longer, sometimes a lot sooner. She has averaged 1oz to 1-1/2oz a feed with 2 bigger feeds (a 3oz at 12:24am and a 2-1/2oz at 4:40pm). I'm calling the doctors tomorrow as there's no way she's getting enough to eat, and the poor darling is not sleeping soundly unless its with me. I may be going crazy, but her voice/sounds are sounding a bit hoarser to me.
Nappy wise, she's been urinating frequently (and clear--she almost peed on me today lol. No discolouration--I know what to look for due to her jaundiced at 2 days old, and I have been keeping an eye on for that) and had one really good bowel movement and 2 smaller ones.
Kara: I've been doing that the last few night--the couch sleeping. She tends to sleep much better that way. Its anything for her at this point.
Laura: Mama instinct is screaming silent-reflux at me (as it had been when I noticed her difficulties burp.) She hasn't spat up an obscene amount, just occasionally like any other baby. I have noticed when it comes to burping her I can hear the exact same noise I'd make when I'd get heartburn when I was pregnant with her-- that wet burp noise.
