Babies: 3 - 6 Months

This to shall pass

I am sitting here balling my eyes out. DS has screamed the entire time he is awake for the last 2 days. The doctor told me to give him cereal because he was eating 45 to 48 ounces a day, well his tummy is now so upset (he had 2 tbsp of cereal 1 time a day for 4 days) that he balls up and screams in pain. I havent heard of anyone being allergic to oatmeal but he has to be it is breaking my heart that I cant help him. To top it off my house is a disaster and I have company coming tomorrow morning. Only 2 hours of sleep last night I am at my wits end. Thanks for letting me vent

Re: This to shall pass

  • I'm so sorry. : (

    Everytime E cries like that I have to fight down the urge to sprint to the ER with her. It just sounds like she's in so much pain.

  • Hang in there Honey.  I know the feeling.  You will be just fine, and this will seem like a distant memory.  Stay strong boo.

  • I'm sorry, that sounds horrible. My DS was extremely fussy and would cry/scream most days out of the week all day. So I know the frustration of not being able to help them feel better. He's just finally coming out of it as we've been trying different things with BM/formula. I hope he starts to feel better soon. Sorry I don't have any advice, just understanding. It will get better!

  • Been there and it sucks, so sorry!  I had the same advice given to me about solids and it never helped a bit.  I'd just keep giving him bottles when he's hungry, especially since it looks like he's not handling the solids well.  It'll get better!

    (P.S.  No one is a superwoman. Your guests should totally understand you have an infant and can't play maid all day.)

  • maybe break up the feedings with the cereal..my pedi told me to give 1 tablespoon in the mis morn and the other around dinner,,,maybe its just too much for his tummy at once.
