Lea, hun if the advice the LC gave you feels wrong, don't listen to it. Simple as that. You are a great mum and you are doing the right thing for you and Gabriella. If co sleeping is what you need to do, do it, if you feel there is something wrong with how she is feeding then there is. And a newborn left screaming for 20mins???? WTF!!!!! That is the most rediculous thing I have heard. You need to find someone out there to support you not put you down.
I have cut out alot in my diet- chocolate, dairy, onions, garlic, spicy foods, anything that might make him windy (like vegie soup, baked beans...). And Liam seems to be alot more settled. I have tried reintroducing chocolate and dairy (they are killing me not to eat!!) and boy did I know it the night I did it! He screamed bloody murder the nights I tried it. So soy milk and no yummy foods for me .
