Some of you may have read my previous thread http://www.pregnancyforum.co.uk/baby-toddler/230065-too-scared-sleep.html
I think the problem was me upping her feeds to 6oz because that was the only thing we did differently with her feeds and the same thing happened a couple of weeks ago when we tried to up it, she was previously on 5oz.
I don't understand why it would affect her so much though, she drinks it all and I followed the instructions exactly on the tin.
Yet she can have a 5oz bottle and have another ounce out of another bottle and be fine!
I've put it back down to 5oz now and she seems fine.
Although she smiles everyday and is quite playful at times I just feel in general she's not a very happy baby, she cries and whinges a hell of a lot and is very unsettled at night times. I think she wakes up more with wind than being hungry. She's currently on Aptamil comfort milk and we're also using colief drops in her bottle.
But I was just thinking maybe it's all to do with the formula she's on, maybe Aptamil just doesn't suite her so I was thinking of maybe switching her to Cow & Gate Comfort milk but after last nights fiasco and hysteria I'm terrified of trying it :/ should I just give it a go and see if she's happier? What would you do?
