[Alfiesmummy]

sorry but its a longun ladies. As you know my boys a big lad and loves his food. for the past 3 months hes been on aptinil stage 2 after sma wgite made him constipated alot. well iv alweats just assumed he was a sicky baby as hes always thrown alot back and been wingey with it, anyway a couple of weeks ago me and Ian searched everywhere for his formula in shops but stage 2 is harder to get, after looking for hours we decided to get the stage 1, almost immediately there was a change he wasnt being sick he was always happy only we didnt make the connection that it was the milk, we just thought it was him gettiong older and growing out of it, so when we did our online tesco shop we did a huge shop because we were short of cash this month as january is a bitch of a month financially, and guess what we ordered the stage 2 again, only now hes being sick and crying all the time throwing back at least half of his feed and constantly screaming of hunger, ian gets paid friday and we are both skint till then hes away working and my little boy is unwell because i was stupid and didnt make the connection, hes on my knee atm having his bottle i guarantee in an hour hell of been sick again and need more food i just feel so upset that iv made my little man so unwell and i am in bits, im one of those women who shouldnt be aloud kids im awfull! sorry to rant im just in bits

Oh hun your a great mummy! Everyone makes a mistake now and then. You have made the connection now and that's what matters.

Could you ring your HV and maybe if you explain whats happening and that you cant afford to replace the milk she might bring you a sample kit or something like that?

Hun its totally evident from the way you talk about Alfie that he is your whole world, you didn't do this on purpose so i dont ever want to hear you say things like you shouldn't have had kids again OK! Alfie is lucky to have a mummy who loves him so much.

It's not your fault and it's great you made the connection now I Know the feeling as when i realised it was something I am eating that was upsetting Leorah I felt so bad but now I am pleased I worked it out and she is a happy contented baby. As soon as gets back on the right milk he'll be as right as rain

Tesco's are normally really good about replacing items. Either goto your local store or phone the number and talk to them.
