Skatty, I am going to give him some omega 3s. We all use Carlson's brand Cod liver oil with EPA and DHA in our family. They have a kid label, but I'm just going to give him a 1/4-1/2 of a teaspoon of ours. It has the same ingredients as the kid bottle. The percentage is just greater in the adult. It is naturally lemon flavored so we'll do it with a spoon or in his food too. I would not add it to her bottle. Just give her the recommended dose, not more unless your health advisor tells you otherwise.
Jimbob, I am bfeeding my son 6x in a 24hr period
4a
6a
1000a
200p
500p (before solids, which are at 515p)
630p (bed is at 645p)
I have tried dropping the 400am two or three times over the last 2 mos and he doesn't go back to sleep. He's hungry (we just started solids 4 wks ago b/c of reactions starting at 6m). He gulps down on 1 side in 5 min and then I put him back in his crib and he'll go back to sleep until 6a. Once we are down to 4 or 5 feeds I think I will start with the rice dream but I know he needs all the nutrients he can get from BM. He is long, but lean.
