One of the big issues we're still having is how often and how much to feed the baby.
We started out at 2 ounces every 3-4 hours. But that didn't seem to be enough. They told us to feed her when she was hungry. But it seemed like she was hungry all the time.
We've finally gone up to four ounces at a time. And this seems to have helped. But the timing is still really inconsistent. Sometimes, she goes five hours before she's hungry. Other times, she's acting like she's starving after 90 minutes. Should we go ahead and feed again that quickly? That doesn't seem right either.
She doesn't spit up. She seems to handle the amount we're giving. And she seems to be satisfied when it's over.
One thing we have now that we didn't have 13 years ago is Google. Working in a medical facility, I know physicians hate Google. People get on there and diagnose themselves before they come to the office. But for me, Google has been great. I can go and get opinions of a lot of different folks.
And it really seems like we're in the range of doing it just about right. I just wish I knew for sure.
