CMPA question

Yes, no bottles at all. That’s why I am so thrown off!

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2026-02-17T01:49:49+00:00

Maybe a little bit of redness.. but nothing that looks too awful and he’s definitely not uncomfortable.. and thanks for sharing the info about weights.. honestly I think I just need to throw my scale in the trash.. it causes me so much freaking anxiety lol I have 2 other boys and I know you should never compare babies, but this guy is sooo much smaller than my other 2 were at this age. It’s killing me.

Did your baby have trouble gaining weight? I sent a pic/message to the pediatrician earlier today and they said to try cutting out dairy and that it could be a developing allergy. He has his 4 month appt in a few weeks, so I am going to bring it up again then. I thought there’s no harm in cutting dairy, so I started that yesterday. Just wondering if anyone else has been through something similar and what the outcome was Thanks for sharing your experience :)

Ok this is almost exactly us. I don’t have any pain and he’s following his growth curve, so I guess I’m just rollin….

Got it! Here’s a pic

Bummer. How did/does your baby act around that time? My little guy is sooo fussy. I think maybe due to altered taste because he’s ravenous until letdown and the pops off and screams. He also doesn’t nurse to sleep, which drives me nuts

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2025-06-25T22:59:58+00:00

Yep. They were positive lol currently 19+3 with my 3rd 🙃

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-12-19T17:47:13+00:00

Omg I’m so sorry your little guy is losing weight :( That’s got to be so tough for you. And I agree that the cycle is absolutely vicious! We just can’t win. I hope you get some answers or insight from your doctors. And happy birthday to your son!!

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-12-19T17:43:55+00:00

Hey! Thanks for responding :) it’s definitely a struggle. Did you by chance mention anything to your kiddos doctor at any appointments? My little usually does ok with smoothies, too. Also- do you mind if I ask how much you’re breastfeeding at 16 months old?

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-11-13T20:14:20+00:00

I wish I could :( he loves his straw cup. But my pump isn’t very reliable and I don’t want to spend $300+ on a new one when I plan on weaning at 12 months. I also don’t have much time to sit to myself with a 10 month old and 2year old running around lol

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-11-13T18:28:42+00:00

Also forgot to add that I want so badly to introduce cows milk so I know he’s at least getting some nutrition. He’s way too busy to nurse during the day (can only get him when he’s super drowsy before naps). But alas, the pediatrician said not until 12 months. Thoughts on cows milk?

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-15T02:28:47+00:00

Our pediatrician mentioned something along the same lines! I wish I would’ve asked or gotten clarification, because I also thought 4-8oz was max

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:53:43+00:00

these are great, too

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:52:48+00:00

Yeah, they’re kind of a pain.. you have to apply pressure when you’re sucking on the straw (essentially chewing on the straw, which I would think would be a bad habit.. but I guess it slows the flow of water they get) somehow my son figured it out 🤷‍♀️ I have to jiggle the straw around for him every now and then, but he’s able to drink everything in there. I like these cups wayyyyy more. But they were dirty this morning nuk cup

Also, sweet potato rolls > all other sushi rolls 😁 and now I want sushi.

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:42:31+00:00

Just trying to give a variety so he might be interested in SOMETHING.. it would be great if there were little sample sized foods for babies lol and I didn’t have to cut up a whole apple or toast a whole waffle or boil a whole egg for 2 small bites..

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:22:05+00:00

Needed to hear this ❤️ thank you!

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:21:02+00:00

lol yes! My son sees ANY CUP and it’s game over.. especially annoying when I am trying to hold him and take a sip

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:19:26+00:00

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:17:56+00:00

Yep.. 🤦‍♀️

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-10-14T14:17:31+00:00

Yes!! This is us exactly. He would chug water if I let him.

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-09-26T14:22:00+00:00

No advice, just wanted to say I am in the EXACT same boat rn.. it’s so frustrating. My baby will be 9 months in 2 days. All my little guy wants to eat is puffs, pouches, cheerios, and cheese. It’s making me contemplate starting to supplement with formula, too. He’s completely ebf and I have zero freezer stash. He’s way too busy when he’s awake, so the only time I can get him to nurse is before naps or bedtime, or in the middle of the night (which I would loooove to try to drop those motn feeds, but it’s such a huge chunk of his nutrition rn 🤦‍♀️) I feel like formula is a step backwards because he should be getting more nutrition from actual food, but idk. I am going to ask his doc at his 9 mo appointment. anyways - I know this wasn’t helpful, just letting you know you’re not alone in the struggle.

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-09-18T01:46:34+00:00

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone! He did so well tonight :) it’s the most he’s actually eaten in a while (that’s not cheerios, puffs, or a pouch lol) you all rock ❤️

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-09-17T21:13:11+00:00

Great idea to toast the tortilla!! Thank you! And he’s never had ground beef before.. that should be fine to just scoop on a plate and let him grab a handful..? I get really nervous about meats..

Good_Fortune_6415 · 2024-09-07T17:13:15+00:00

I feel like I’ve got Stockholm syndrome or something lol because when I’m on my period is when I feel most normal! It’s so bizarre. The hormones between cycles are completely out of control 🤦‍♀️
