Not filling him up

[leeanne]

It seems little Chase wants nothing to do but eat, eat and eat.

Could it be that the formula is just not filling him up?

Any suggestions on a formula in Canada that might?

Hmm not sure myself. We're still using Nestle. Spoke to my pediatrician about it today and the gas problems and she said it was common with formula fed babies And that Nestle was one of the better ones....so I guess we are sticking with that

How many ounces is he eating at a time?

I don't know about formula but maybe he's going threw a growth spert and that's why he's eatting so much.

Good luck and I hope that things work themselves out soon.

This is true...Hannah went through several days around 2-3 weeks where she was eating every hour to two hours (which was unusual for her she always ate every 3 hours or so, now ever 4-5 hours)

Sounds like a growth spurt.

3 weeks and 6 weeks was when I was told to expect growth spurts and Brooklynn stuck to that schedule. I have been using the nestle omega 3 & 6 formula when I do use it.

My mom told me today that she would sometimes add a tiny bit of rice cereal mix to my bottles when I was really hungry, maybe ask the doctor about that.

I was thinking it might be a growth spurt.

He ate so much yesterday that by the end of the day he was so fussy due to gas, tiredness, etc. He was up at 7 a.m. and down at 10 p.m. with a few power naps in between and a longer one in the afternoon that lasted 1 1/2 hours.

Needless to say, he's tired me out. Doesn't help too that I have an infection in both of my eyes!

Thank God it gets easier huh?

 

[leeanne]

In many ways, Toria, it does. LOL Yet, I so don't want the time to go by quickly as they don't stay babies for very long.

Hopefully you'll get more rest today
