As I type this message I am listening to my DS wailing like a wounded animal and chewing relentlessly on his fingers and hands, despite the fact that I have already fed him three times this morning (it's just after 7am).
He's always been hungry and I have a good breast milk supply which I supplement with formula in the evenings. I've also started expressing in the evenings to up my milk further.
Against my better judgement I tried him on some baby rice yesterday which he loved. He is a very strong baby, and can hold his head up; he didn't seem to have any trouble swallowing either.
I don't want to wean him at 15 weeks but I am struggling with his distress which lasts all day. I also have a 2yr old DD and feeding DS more than I already do is not a realistic option!! HELP!!!
