Sorry to incorporate but I though they might be connected.
Pretty much I am receiving conflicting advice from different sources - mw tells me to feed him every 2 hours and hv says its normal for him to sleep up to 4 hours at night.
We had issues from the very start -he wont settle in his moses basket, falls asleep on me or DH. I think he also gets tummy aches as he started screaming and doesnt settle down and then trumps, is it colic or just wind?
I managed to get him to sleep in his moses basket after 12 noon feed but he wont settle at night. He tends to wriggle his legs and arms and wake himself up (but then I am not sure whether he wriggles because of the tummy ache)
He looks less yellow than before but he only gained about 10 grams since we weighed him last. He was 3600 at birth, then 3440 at 5 days old and 3450 at 12 days old.
MW I saw last time was useless - we forgot the papers and she had a major fit about it and I just didnt want to talk to her about anything. Even my DH was pissed off and he is a very calm person.
Anyway, I am worried he isnt getting enough milk hence not a big weight gain and still looking yellowish?
I really dont know what to do plus want to be able to put him down in his moses basket and do things while he is asleep.
Any advice at all ladies?
