NICU rant 😑 sorry for it being so long

Ashley

So my son has been in the nicu for almost 5 weeks now. He got transferred to another hospital yesterday for an eye exam which was today. Well I HATE their nicu! I feel like the nurses don't know him like the other hospital and there so many babies in it, they just don't pay enough attention , the nicu he was in before has about 10 babies. This one has about 35+

Another thing, I feel like I just pump everything I have and before I know it I have to bring more up well I literally have nothing more to bring him, Im still pumping but by the time I bring some up it'll be time to bring more, I have no supply built up of my own well I told them tonight I will just have to have them supplement with formula which is so upsetting because I never wanted to do that but I don't see any other option until I can build my supply up and get enough milk to bring him. I'm just so fed up with this whole situation and I just want my baby home. All that is left for him to do is gain a little bit more (he's 4 pounds 6 ounces today) and be able to eat by bottle or boob all the time instead of the feeding tube he has right now. But I feel like the nurses he has at the new nicu are just like " well he doesn't want to eat so well just do it by tube" versus the other hospital where they really pushed him to get the bottle and they new him so well. I KNOW he wants to eat by bottle or boob he shows all of signs
