1st time breast feeding mom! (Long post??)
I formula fed my son, and with my daughter (4 days old) I am trying to breast feed (strictly pumping) she’s a pretty big eater so I’ve fed her my milk first & then formula after to fill her up. She seems pretty gassy and uncomfortable and I can’t determine which one it might be that’s causing it. I don’t know why I feel like it’s my milk? Am I able to eat/drink anything I want while breast feeding? Things I should avoid? She still drinks my milk first fine, following formula. And I’m not sure what’s causing the colic uncomfortable gas she gets. I hope it’s the formula because I want to strictly breast feed eventually once my supply is up. When should I drop the formula? Will that determine what’s causing the colic? Is there a colic drop or maybe a colic bottle I can use to avoid gassy or upset stomach and still use my milk? My first was formula fed, and not colic at all so I’m new to the sensitivity and my milk production. Thanks in advance!
