Eating problems with 8wk old...

Posted by Jennifer S. on January 09, 2003 at 13:26:00:

Hi everyone, my daughter is 8wks. old and just started daycare this past Mon. due to my going back to work.

For the past 8wks. I have nursed her religously and snuggled her galore! This past weekend I started really getting her adjusted to formula and bottles because I cannot keep up the nursing or pumping while working through the day. she was doing fine at first but ever since Monday she has been totally out of sorts. She totally refuses a bottle from me now and cries (which she never does). While doing this she is constantly turning her head into my breasts trying to nurse through my shirt. I know I am still producing some milk because I will nurse her when I get home and during a.m. feedings.

I dont know what to do, because now my girlfriend who is watching her said that she isn't eating very well for her either now.

Any suggestions of what might be going on with her?

Thanks
Jennifer S.
