The Fearless Formula Feeder Blog!

The FFF Quick-and-Dirty Guide to Formula Feeding: Recognizing Sensitivity, Intolerance or Allergy to Formula | Fearless Formula Feeder
If you have a few minutes, please read the blog post in the link that I have attached to this post. I know that some people feel like I am way over exaggerating our situation or even lying about some of this stuff, but the blog link above is so similar to what we've went through. It gives me some comfort to know that I'm not just crazy. I can't believe its taken me this long to find her blog. She also wrote a book about not feeling guilty about formula feeding. I can't wait to purchase the book and read it!

So rice cereal is not agreeing with your tummy at all so far. It upsets your tummy so much that you won't sleep for more than about 3 and a half hours at a time at night and I've had to change your clothes and crib sheets several times from blow-outs in your diaper. I literally put a pinch of cereal in your bottle last night and your crib was a mess. I know the only way test if this is just your body getting used to a food change or an intolerance to rice is to keep giving it to you in small doses, but this is exhausting. Might try it just a few more nights and then call the doctor for some guidance because I don't think how this cereal is making your tummy feel is normal.

On a sad note, your daddy is having a very rough day today. One of his waitresses had a baby around 8:30pm last night and the poor sweet little boy passed away around 1:30am this morning :( Your daddy is very upset about this and the whole thing just makes me feel terrible. That is so heart breaking. The issue had went undetected during the pregnancy so this couple had no idea that their baby wasn't healthy. If you have a moment today, send some positive thoughts to this couple that I will leave unnamed out of respect for their situation.

It is situations like this where I take a step back and think that no matter what we are going through right now, I have you baby. I can hold you and kiss your sweet face. It makes me sad for parents out there who aren't able to do that. I love you my baby girl, always and forever.
