Knock on wood (update on feeding problems)...

in Success after IF

We are seeing improvement with the new bottles (Dr. Brown's - still level 1 nipples though) and alimentum combo. She has mostly finished every bottle for the last day and a half and more importantly, has barely fussed/cried at feedings, or if she does it's not until there's only 1/2 oz. left in the bottle, not after her first few sucks. And she's still nursing before each feeding without issue even though I'm still eating dairy. Fingers crossed this lasts, since she had improved before a few weeks ago then got worse again.

 We couldn't get an appointment with the GI doc for almost 3 weeks so hoping she continues to do well between now and then.

Thanks again to everyone for the advice/help/support!

    That is such great news.  Alimentum helped my DS #1 immensely.  I hope it continues to get better for you.  If you use RTF formula, BRU is having a sale on Alimentum.

    So glad to hear this!  Like a pp said, if she's on the RTF Alimentum, BRU has a sale through tomorrow going on.  Fingers crossed that she continues to do well with this regimen and that you can wean onto normal formula when she gets a bit older.  
    After 2 years and 6 IUIs, we did it with IVF w/ ICSI!

    I'm so glad you are seeing an improvement. Matt had reflux/feeding issues when he was a infant, and it was so hard.
