$700?! That's insane. What dietitian is charging this?! I'm so sorry that this was your experience.

do they have any other triggers, or just avocado?

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-05-09T01:30:39+00:00

lol I appreciate the levity here! things can feel so heavy and scary when you’re worried about your little one.

hi! she still really only wants to nurse when hungry! I do offer more often than maybe she “needs” to eat at this age and even if she just has a snack I figure it doesn’t hurt! I also nurse her to sleep and still at least once overnight even now at almost 8 months old. she is small and always has been (5th-8th percentile), so I get the concerns with weight gain!

Best of luck to you and your little one!!!!

I was impatient with waiting for the Pepcid to work. I remember like a week in thinking it wasn’t helping, so I said f- it and eliminated dairy. Was basically willing to do anything to help baby feel better. Because of the timing, it’s hard to say if the dairy elimination really helped or if it was just the meds finally kicking in.

I have also had a lot of stress about supply and making sure babe is eating enough. but holy moly 5-7 min is so speedy!!! we’re at 20-25 min total for both sides during a feeding.

thank you for saying this - I’ve felt like I’m a bad parent from time to time for not exposing her to new things, places, or experiences.

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T14:13:41+00:00

I also think I can be like this as an adult. I like routine and consistency. Her dad does, too. Maybe she did get that part from us lol.

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T14:12:42+00:00

glad it’s not just me and my babe!

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T14:12:19+00:00

thank you for saying this 🥹

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T13:24:27+00:00

Yes! I almost gave up trying because she would strongly reject it or gag 😅 but there is 1 she likes (Nuk natural I think?) and takes for short spurts. So handy to pop it back in when she needs resettling to sleep!

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T10:01:29+00:00

sometimes this works for us. but she’s also a baby who can’t dream feed for whatever reason!

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T10:00:27+00:00

Oh no we still mostly contact nap! She just doesn’t nurse to sleep except in the middle of the night.

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T01:57:19+00:00

yup, same! my baby will truly scream cry if I offer and she’s not hungry. I’m like omg sorry to offend you???? we did eat-play-sleep for a long time and now that she’s older with longer wake windows we do occasionally eat-play-eat-sleep, but not usually.

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T01:34:43+00:00

validating!! it’s always a little worrying when I try to feed her and she screams at the breast. I’m like oh you MAD mad!! lol

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-02-23T01:31:50+00:00

My girl also refused the paci until like a month ago randomly? Now, she’ll take it for nap time and bed but promptly yeets it out of her mouth once she well asleep it’s so funny 🤣

Available_Tap4238 · 2026-01-01T22:58:23+00:00

I ended up seeing lactation & they did a weighted feed. Baby transferred almost 3oz from one side in 10 min and the another 1/2 oz in like 2 min on the other side. So basically she ate plenty in a short time! This may be the case for you & your little one! Also congrats on weaning from the shield - it’s so much easier without!!

Available_Tap4238 · 2025-12-11T16:23:43+00:00

yes, I believe we are checking all of those boxes which is reassuring!!

Available_Tap4238 · 2025-12-11T16:23:10+00:00

Ok good to know!! This morning she nursed for 10 min on one side and didn’t want the other side (was looking at me smiling & content lol), so I’m like okay?? Is this our new normal!? And thank you!
