How much food how often
My daughter was born at 35 weeks 1 day gestation. She is now 19 days old. She does not cry for food and she suffers from GERD. The drs said feed on demand but then said small frequent meals. How much how often should she be eating? I'm waking her every 2 hours to feed and giving her 2oz pumped breastmilk. When breastfeeding she eats until it all comes back.
When my son was born the nicu told me wake him up every 3 to 4 hrs to feed him don't let him go past 4hrs not eating & the told me to make him eat atleast 50ml every feeding
Good luck! We saw some improvement in 24 hours nut bigger improvements after several days. Also if it seems like it's starting to work less the dosage is based on weight so needs to be increased as baby grows
Started Zantac today and baby seems better BF 2x no problem but the last BF she ate until she overflowed. Is this normal? Any suggestions?
