Oh I am so sure that this will get better after 3-4 months -- just soo heartbreaking in the meanwhile.

During the day, I can easily do things such as wandering outside, putting him on tummy etc to help the wind ... it is really the 4am-630am period that kills me. He is constantly grunting and straining and it is SO hard to settle him.

Also another thing I noticed is that with this formula, his spew is curd-like. Does that sound normal?

Kmn -- I really wish that I would be able to BF. I have extensively researched the drugs that I have been put on and there is no way. I am on them for too long (possibly forever) and even if not, the risks to the baby are very great with these drugs. I desperately spent a week expressing and throwing away every 2 hours while I looked at all possibilities, including future re-lactating. It is not meant to be with this one. It has been quite traumatic and heartbreaking, but I a grateful I am alive to have these concerns.
