Hi Lani - re what the health nurse said, Amelia gets formula top ups and when she's full she stops sucking or falls asleep, I'm sure they don't keep eating for the sake of it. Just be mindful that they are very anti formula half the time so might just be saying that so you don't use it? My health nurse is old school and doesn't have a problem with formula top ups, she said if baby is hungry they're hungry, especially while going through a growth spurt, maybe that's what Jett is having? Ask the paed tomorrow, I'm sure you're doing fine! As for the fenugreek, I think it's working although I'm finding it hard to remember to take them 3 times a day, you have to have them with food and half the time I don't eat lunch ha ha! Must be stricter as I think they are definitely doing something!
Hi Rose & BS - great to hear from you. Sounds like you have some fast flow there Rose, wish I had more of it! And BS you don't look like you need to lose that much weight, are you sure, you look great to me! I too feel like a cow, sux!
Hi Hannah - I'm really to sorry to hear about your mum, I hope she's feeling better soon. Must be hard to watch her going through that too. I'm not surprised she's cranky, think I would be too. Fingers crossed she gets better soon mate. I'm sure Amelia puts a smile on her face.
AFM - got another 6 hours out of Amelia last night, 2 nights in a row wahoo! She went to bed at 9.30 pm and woke at 3.30 am, fed and went back down until 7.30 am! She's also had a sleep this morning, a nice change from the last week where she's been catnapping all day and then waking every 3 hours again at night! I'm sure it will all change again soon so won't get too excited.
Oops, gotta run, time for her lunch!
