M DD is now 1 month old, and we are formula feeding (I tried v.hard to breast feed, so don't suggest it!)
We are following the box instructions n how much she should be having and how often, but she is doing things her own way!
Advice is 150ml and to leave at least 3 hours between feeds, but she is leaving 60mls in every bottle and feeding every hour and a half-2 hours?!
She is putting on weight, but too quickly and the health visitor says we need to hold off on feeding her for the 3 hours, but if she's not taking a full bottle I don't want her to be screaming (not the problem) but also hungry (moreso my problem) for anything up to an hour and a half?
She also has colic, but not sure if this is related? Please help!!
