All the helplines are busy and I need advice quick. Just had health visitor round who looked at screaming colicky baby (who has been on and off boob all day) and told me to top him up wth formula. She then goes off and speaks to her colleagues who look at his weight gain (he is three weeks and on 25th centile) and decide that I am not producing enough and definitely need to top up.
I am so upset, crying my eyes out as I have been made to feel like I am starving my baby. The same health visitors have watch me feed and checked his weight all along and have never had a problem. What the hell do I do? I feel so guilty as he lies here screaming that I have a bottle of formula here and ready to give him.
