I'm so exasperated by my bb. Whenever he's awake, he'll gesticulate for milk very soon. But when the EBM is heated up, he will first suckle on the bottle teat very fast and then couldn't finish it. I've been trying to get him on at least a 2-hourly routine of feeding EBM at 100ml but usually doesn't work by afternoon. He will suddenly cry out very loud and start sucking his fingers and demand feeding. By the time EBM is heated up, which is only about 5-8 min, he can't finish it already. However when he is asleep and I wake him up after 2 hours, he can finish his 100ml. Sometimes, he'll demand feeding an hour earlier and when the milk is offered, he won't drink it. By 9pm, he is often cranky and will tear the house down with his crying. This lasted till 1 am last nite. How? I've been so frustrated over this.
He also has rashes on his cheeks and sticky eyes. Plus colic also, prob due to drinking too fast from the bottle.
Also, I tried taking fenugreek capsule. It helped to increase my milk production a bit but it gives me this strange body odor. Also I start having leaky breasts. Anyone eating fenugreek too?
I'm so tired that I felt like running away from the bb.
