New to FF and quantity of formula

[-Maya-]

Here is today report.
2300 DF: I offered 6oz, he ate 5,5oz
0500: I offered 5oz, he did not finish them.
0840: he ate almost all 6oz offered, without draining his bottle.

So, a partial win.

I have not yet tried to top up before a nap. Next time we got in a bad food/sleep cycle I will try for sure. Now he's sleeping, we are at my parents home, so increased difficulty!

Seems he was more interested in the WU feed so that's good

Soooo frustrating! Lo has a little bit of runny nose. Guess what happens now? He eats only 4oz per bottle, so he is very very hungry in early hours of the morning. Today he has eaten at half past four am 6oz. All previous work thrown away.
Will we ever have a consistent STTN?
I am again hating my life, main effect of sleep deprivation.

(((Hugs))) There will always be blips to go through - sickness, teething, development. It doesn't mean your hard worl was a waste though! Also if he is getting a cold he could find it hard to suck on the bottl and breathe. We have a nifty thing that allows you to suction mucous out of the nose, not sure though if something like that is available where you are.

Yes they are available and I owe one, but lo consider it a devil instrument and he does not allow me to use that tool in an effective way.

Oddly enough, today after a bad night, we have had a perfect nap day and also a very happy child. Two 1,5 naps and one catnap have made us reach an almost perfect 3,5 easy. I know it will not repeat tomorrow...
