Well skyler slept through that night! In bed asleep for 830 and just woke now yay! And touch wood her spots look better today! I feel great!

Skyler is 7 weeks tomorrow and usually has 150ml per feed averaging about 700ml a day. At 4 week she was having about 120ml. We use size 2 teats as well.As long as they're gaining weight that's ok xxx

Thanks guys. It has been scary and hard work. Out now, I thought when I took her docs last week they would say I was being an over protective paranoid mum lol! Shocked when the doc called hospital and told me to take her in.

Thanks PCM for tip on next teat size. May give ago. Is 4weeks too young to try this?xx

 

[Maddiie]

Rachel Alfies ff and is the exact same. I make all his bottles to 120ml but its rare he has the lot he just nods off or simply won't take anymore, then wants feeding again in 2 hours or less! Then h's the same then! And he's 7 weeks old now! And poor lily! Get well soon hope your okay Xx

Just had my hv here..... Little man weighs 8lb 6.5 now, which apparently is a little low, so gotta get him weighed every 2 weeks
He also vomited his whole feed while he was here, so said I need to mention it to the gp at his check tomorrow! xxx

bad night, im not sure when I'm supposed to sleep? he doesnt sleep at all in the day, just naps for 5 mins on me and then wakes again? he used to finish a feed sleepy and be on for a good stretch but now its jut on and off and isnt sleepy when he is done? or if he is he wakes within minutes???

stressed today

Sassy, Jack never gained weight quickly and still doesn't now. I hope him being sick is just because he's still relatively new.

Well the HV has been, she tried to lecture me because he was fast asleep on his tummy until I told her he sleeps 20mins max on his back and it's very disturbed sleep because he flaps a lot. I said he'll happily sleep soundly for 2hrs+ on his tummy. She wasn't happy but Harry's happy which is all that I care about. She weighed him and he's now 7lb 11oz which was Jack's birth weight! He's gained 1lb 10oz in 3wks 2days! We're so pleased with our little porky pig!

Hope everyone's havin a lovely day! xxx

Sassy, Lilly was sick for two days last week after every feed and not just a bit she was hacking up whole feed. She lost weight but is now feeding fine and stopped it xx

 

[Msclaireypants]

Well at the age of 25 days old …I finally have a health visitor!! She phoned and is absolutely lovely and will be coming out to visit us tomorrow x

Colief is now on repeat prescription lanishol nipple cream isnt she said its not medically licensed so cant prescribe it
Spoke to the pharmacist and they're gona see if there's something similar to prx or be allowed to prx lanishol xx

Nipples arent too bad now only using cream 3 times a day instead of every feed xx

How are we all?!
