Baby always hungry

Hi looking for some advice. My little baby will be 3 months on Tues. He has bad reflux so was put on anti reflux milk. Things were going great but over the last week he is drinking 7oz bottles but is still hungry after. Could I start him on baby rice or should I wait until he is 4months. I feel like I am constantly givin him bottles

Hello Rosie,as far as i know we can start giving solid when he turn 6 months.You have a hungry baby.My girl is nearly 3 months and she still on 5 oz...How many bottles is he taking within 24 hrs?

No solid food until babies are 6 months. No worries. Babies are always hungry.

Giiiiir!!! My twins 4 months on the 3rd of June (born nearly 4 weeks early) and are on anti-reflux milk and are drinking 7 oz. It was great at first but sometimes they want more and sometimes they barely take 100mls /3½ oz. You bubba could be going through the 4 month regression a little early. If your phn says puree then puree away and see how it goes. But when you give them solids this early they only need literally 2 spoons 😆 it's mad

The advice is not to start on solids until 17 weeks.

My boy was on that anti-reflux formula as well and because its so foamy he was always hungry. You have to give him more anyway to get all the nutrition. My pediatrician told me to give him as much as he takes. After 3,5 months we switched him to a normal milk as his reflux was better and he wasn't that hungry anymore.

My baby has baby rice since he was 3 months old, it was recommended by the community nurse. It helps with the sleep too...

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵

Can someone pls help i keep making this post and nobody is responding

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Postpartum

I’m only 3 days postpartum (FTM) and already have extremely bad anxiety. I’m crying every night, as I think of another night of no sleep. My baby will not settle in his cot, he cries every moment we put him down unless in his chair rocker. So me and my partner are having to alternate after 3/4 hours of being awake with him downstairs. I’m trying everything to get him to settle. It’s a load of overwhelming stress. I’m 23, I was desperate for a baby and now I have one and feel completely useless. I miss it just being me and my partner.

I feel like just a milk cow

Hi I have a 16 day old via c section, I'm a FTM never having been around babies before as I am the youngest of my household and from a small family. My husband is fantastic with our little one. But ever since I've had the baby I just feel like the only thing I'm good for is producing milk. I feel disconnected from my husband like the only reason he's around is because am producing milk. We were having some issues before the baby and we're struggling it took a while to feel like he was onboard even though he said he was from the moment we found out. I dunno if I'm feeling like a spear part because I'm lacking confidence with baby or because I feel like he wouldn't mind being a single dad. Is this postpartum hormones or something else?

How long did it take for your child’s circumcision to heal and you could give him a bath?

I’ve just been wiping him down with a fiber wash cloth but I just wanted to know from others experience on how long it took

When does it get better?

I was crying on the phone with the perinatal mental health team today and the lovely lady, bless her, kept assuring me that it gets better. I kept telling her I hope so because people have been saying that since having my LO and it just feels like it keeps getting worse. She assured me it gets better....
