That is strange, eh Zoey? I understand some of the ingredients being different, but you would think that both forms would work the same way. Weird. Well, like Jenn said we can't seem to find the powder anywhere... maybe they just have the RTF in Canada. DH is getting some now; he is out grocery shopping with DS.
Jenn, I certainly wouldn't mind if it helped her sleep! Since she was born we have only had two evenings (someone do the math there) where she has gone to bed at BT and stayed asleep. Not STTN until the next morning, but stayed asleep until at least the DF. It has gotten better in the last few weeks but she is generally awake 2-3 times between BT and the DF, and on a good night it is just a quick resettle. For months, though, she would just wake up screaming and inconsolable all evening long.
She does STTN after the DF about 4 nights a week now, which is good. But DH and I are at the point where we would love to be able to hire a babysitter and go out for an evening, and it is frustrating that we can't. She has SA and is very, very attached to me... if anyone other than one of us tried to resettle her in the evenings we are too afraid that she would freak out completely.
I still worry about her bowels. Yesterday she seemed constipated; she only pooped once towards the end of the day, and it was rather firm and small but brown. Then this morning she had a slightly softer one (still quite formed) and again it was a nice normal looking brown. And then about 20 min later she had a green diarrhea blowout.
Nothing to eat in between. What is that??
Anyway, I am going to give the Alimentum a try and yes, I will give it a month. Thanks for the support girls!! You rock. I'll update you when we get an idea about how this is working.
