Stacy,
We are trying your cluster feed schedule tonight. We'll see how it goes tonight. She ate well at 5:00 (almost as if she hadn't eatned two hours earlier) and then ate even better at 7:00. Who knew she could take in so much food?!? Her schedule is a bit off tonight since we were at a friend's place for dinner and she didn't go down at her usual time, so tonight may not be the best test of the cluster feed, but we thought we would give it a shot anyways.
I am familiar with Beseiker (sp?), near Airdrie, right? We are in NW Calgary, but up until about 8 months ago we were in Cochrane.
Shine,
My lo doesn't seem to wheeze, but does cough quite a bit, especially after a crying spell. Not sure if that and the reflux are related. She had terrible gas up until a week or so ago as well, but since I changed my diet that seems to have become much better. The Zantac seems to be helping as well. My LO isn't on solids yet, but I can try and up her breastmilk intake during the day, which I am currently trying to do.
Thanks so much for the advice, it's great to know that I'm not alone in this and that other people have been through something similar and to find out what worked and didn't work for them.
Thanks,
