I just got a much needed 4 hour stretch! Thank you buddy! Between the mastitis and my toddler teething...I've been totally run down and frankly wanted to curl up and die. Fx he will sleep until she gets up and we have a great day because daddy isn't ing home to take care of us today
Wow rough night! Sloan up since 1 trying to poop- of course I feed her thinking she was hungry- apparently not. Finally at 5 am we got a poop! And then are 4 oz and now asleep! Thank god! But now I'm up starting our morning routine of bottle washing, diaper laundry, coffee.
Up. Fallyn and DH are sleeping. We had a 4 hour stretch. I keep waking up in a panic like she's asleep in my arms and I've dropped her. (She's always safe in her pnp newborn napper) It scares the shit out of me!
LO fell asleep at 11 & slept until 3:30. Thank you baby for the 4.5 hour stretch! I only slept 3 hours of that but at least you're sleeps are getting longer. He ate, burped, pooped, & was asleep again all by 3:53. This must be his start to the weekend gift to me. There are no words to express my gratitude other than, goodnight!

Any advice about constipation?
My LO had it bad last week ! I called the dr she gave me a list of excersizes to do with her ... Bicycle her legs, take them and push them side to side , massage abdomen , take both legs and push then up towards her abdomen . Also rectal stimulation which was what I had to end up doing 2 days later because nothing worked . After the recital stimulation she was good and we switched her formula . Ever since then we haven't had a problem .

What formula are you using now?
We changed to gentlease due to her reflux and it's helping that ALOT!
I'd hate to switch again but I hate seeing her like this.
@BethRN1987 we were giving her the similac advance because that's what the hospital gave us while we were there . But I think it was too harsh on her belly , so we switched to the similac sensitive I have been much more pleased with that ! She's not near is gassy or constipated anymore .

We are up again. Didn't quite make it to a 3 hr stretch. You ladies are lucky! I had to put her on my chest to sleep. I really hate that this is how she sleeps but she's been like this since day 1. She's being breastfed now and acting like she can't get enough! Hopefully soon we can get longer stretches of sleep between feeds. This is tiring, especially because it's just me and baby doing it alone.

I do the same thing. I'll wake up rooting through my blankets thinking I lost DD in there somewhere.
