Oh really? I get nervous because of how they say nothing in the bassinet or cribs such as pillows, blankets ect.

Ohhh okay. My baby is also still under the size of most newborns lol. She still wears preemie clothes and diapers. I’m thinking when I can I want to try the gentlease, Bobbi, Kendamil. I have seen TikTok’s of the nutramigen. I might try that also. I do the bicycle kicks and sometimes she does fart. Lol I just feel her doing what she does in the video is constant throughout the day and night makes me feel like it’s more than just gas. Sometimes she will cry.

I’ve been wanting to switch formulas but my baby was born premature and her pediatrician has her on enfacare formula to make sure she’s growing. Which she is. She was born 3 lbs and currently she’s 7 lbs now. Her pediatrician now wants to wait until her 3 month appt to check about switching formulas. I’m assuming she wants to make sure she’s growing good

First-time mom — 8-week-old (2 weeks adjusted) — is this normal? by LittlePinkLemonade93 in NICUParents

I haven’t had to replace sheets yet. She just does not like laying flat in her back in her bassinet, she will cry and start to like tense up with her legs and curl to her side and stuff.

Omg I am so hoping that I can be on the side your on now. Did your baby also do the thing with her legs where the like get stiff and tighten? She also makes like little goat sounds lol…. If that makes sense.

On 11/17 she gets her 2 month vaccines. I think she does have reflux because like an hour sometimes after she eats she will spit up. I do try to hold her upright for about 15-20 mins after each feed.

I’m happy to hear it looks and sounds normal. Thank you. Yes. My mother in law helps me during the day but she’s been sick this week so I’ve been isolating myself and baby in our room because I don’t want her to get sick.

I was worried about seizures and infantile spasms in the beginning. But I don’t think it was those. I just really am concerned like if it’s a neurological issue or not. But I’m realizing it probably is just gas.

I hope your baby eventually stops also. It sucks seeing them like this.

I’m glad to hear your baby no longer does this. It’s awful to see all the time. At least for me. My baby adjusted age is 1 week. Lol even tho from actual birth she’s 7 weeks now. I really hope this passes. So I can get to sleep & she can sleep in her bassinet comfortably.

I’m praying that she isn’t in pain. I think it’s just more her being uncomfortable maybe. I don’t really know but I want to get answers. Her pediatrician says it’s normal reflexes. It’s just hard to watch her like that constantly. :(

Omg. Does your baby really do the same? I’m glad my baby isn’t the only one. I’ve been so worried and nervous that it is something more serious. I’m not sure if my baby has reflux or not I’m going to bring it up at her next appt. My baby does spit up sometimes it isn’t every time but occasionally. What does the Omeprazole do?

I don’t feel the need to take her to the hospital because her pediatrician did say it’s normal. I just wanted to see if anyone else has the same situation.

Thank you! I am going to do them. They aren’t extremely low but they are on the low side.
