So, we are on Day 5 of Neocate. We transitioned from an unsuccessful 8 week trial of FULL T.E.D. Last night, the ‘before bed’ feeding was awful. DS refluxed the whole time and I could barely get an ounce in him (he’s on marci max dose of BB and NEVER refused the breast like this). Then he slept for 7 hrs (?) and took his 4 am bottle fine, his 7 am bottle fine but fought his 10 am bottle. Just kind of wondering how bad everyone’s reflux got during the transition. When will reflux improve and when will his intake increase? I feel like it’s REALLY flaring now and I’m frightened of developing a bottle aversion before this 2 week healing period can happen. He’s drinking like 12-15 oz. a day (plenty of wet AND messy diapers though and weight gain has never been an issue—3 mos/14.5 lbs.). I guess it’s worth mentioning that lots has improved since the transition. He’s sleeping better and is SO much less squirmy. BM’s are almost mucous free! Your thoughts?
P.S. Ignore my siggy. It’s totally inaccurate!
