need words of encouragement π
I'm so frustrated and filled with anxiety over how much my baby eats and weighs. I feel like she doesn't eat enough. Last week she ate almost 32 oz in one day but now she's going down to 24oz. We are going to the pediatrician tomorrow morning to make sure she has gained weight since her last appointment a few days ago because I feel like she's stayed the same weight.
She's on formula and breastmilk. She has to eat formula out of a super slow nipple or else she projectile vomits it all up so hard that it shoots out of her nose and she chokes on it which ends up scaring me and making both of us cry. It takes her forever to finish a formula bottle and I feel like she doesn't like the taste of it either. But my milk supply is probably tasting gross right now because I'm on two different horribly tasting antibiotics. I wish I wasn't on them anymore (only 2.5 days left) and that I could just give her breastmilk but I'm on the antibiotics because I had mastitis with a 102 fever which destroyed my milk supply. I went from pumping 4oz out of the right breast to .5oz.
