Nicholas has a Doctors appointment Friday because of his eating issue. He hates to eat and doesn't eat very much. We have a feeling it's acid reflux, that can be fixed with medication but wanted to avoid medication if we can. Lindsey describes it as-
We introduced the bottle at about 2 weeks and he took it fine. As of about 4-6 weeks ago he started screeming while eating. It's worse with a bottle but he still screams while nursing. He arches his back and gets stiff as a board which sounds like Acid Reflux. He spits up occassionaly but not a ton and he doesn't seem to have a problem laying down flat after eating which is why I question whether or not it's reflux. When he takes the bottle he only eats about 2.5 oz at a time he also only nurses for about 5 minutes. Some times he eats every 1.5 hrs sometimes up to 3 hrs but still doesn't nurse longer or take more expressed milk.
We will know more Friday.
Good luck getting some answers... keep us posted!
