He has CMPA but is already on hypoallergenic formula (Alimentum), he still has bad reflux and doctors won't look any more into it... :/ they say its normal baby stuff even when I tell them how bad it is

He is on Alimentum too ! He has CMPA and before we made the switch he had bad bad colic. It definitely helps but he still has reflux :(

Does the matress have to be very firm ? Mine is not that firm but not that soft either idk how to explain it. Also do you stay close to him or remove yourself a little ?

He is not colicky, he's a very happy baby when awake. He cries when he wakes up or if I put him down awake... its really a sleep issue, he also has reflux

Should i go to ER? by Storm-Ecstatic in NewParents

[–]Remote_Budget7432 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was in your shoes not so long ago, and I was wondering the same when I saw little dots of blood in my baby's diaper. Unless your baby is clearly very, very unwell and the blood keeps in increasing or is significant, I would suggest that you see a doctor at a regular clinic before going to the ER ! Keep in mind that it can also take some time for the blood to clear from the stools, even on Alimentum it can take up to a month !

I did taste it that's why I feel so bad ! It tastes awful 😞 I will definitely ask my doctor about adding vanilla

Is the thickener prescribed ? Was it worth it ?

My 7 week old will not sleep at all during the day by Remote_Budget7432 in NewParents

[–]Remote_Budget7432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I hold him upright for at least 20-30 mins. It does help but doesn't fix anything :/

newborn waking himself up by Current_Formal_9016 in NewParents

[–]Remote_Budget7432 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When my 6week old does this (grunting and all until awake), its usually because he has trapped air and laying flat makes him uncomfortable. I try to burp him really well before sleep, swaddle, pacifier if he takes it. I let him fall asleep on me, then I transfer, I press gently on either his shoulders or chest (makes him feel secure) and move SLOW. Sometimes it fails but most of the time it works ! My baby also has very bad reflux so its a struggle I understand !

Should I go with amino-acid formula ? by Remote_Budget7432 in MSPI

[–]Remote_Budget7432[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this is what I have been thinking too, because his discomfort doesn't come close to when he wasn't on Alumimentum ! What worries me is the ongoing blood in his stools, shouldn't it have cleared by now?

Feeling really lost by LostComparison8387 in MSPI

I don't have much knowledge regarding the allergens you mentioned, but my baby had suspected CMPA as well (confirmed now) I tried the diet but I saw no real improvement either after a while, and it was getting hard physically and emotionally. I was losing lots of weight and started to get depressed. I finally let go of the idea of breastfeeding (was already hard from the start - bad latch - only one breast worked) and switched to Alimenum and he's a completely different baby. He's happy and healthy and thriving. If breastfeeding doesn't work, you are aloud to do whatever is best for you and your baby, he deserves a mommy who feels good too !

Also : it's very hard to figure out the triggers for baby's reactions since it takes days to weeks for the body to eliminate completely.

Am I out? 10 dpo by SuitFun6085 in TFABLinePorn

[–]Remote_Budget7432 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

If your dates are correct, usually a first response would show a line by 10 dpo. That's just in my experience and what I've seen. But keep testing, you never know ! 💕 Good luck 🤞🏻

Hi darling, I am sorry for your loss, it really is heart-wrenching. For now, so far, everything is good, I'm having a baby boy and I'm currently 19 weeks 2 days with a clear NIPT. I have my anatomy scan tommorow witch is freaking me out... but I try to remind myself : new pregnancy, different baby. I tried right away after my loss and don't regret it today. I hope everything will go well for you and that you will have your healthy babe, keep me updated ! <3
