At my wits end. DS is 8 weeks today. Breastfeeding had been amazing up until about 2 weeks ago. For the last 2 weeks he's suddenly very fussy during the day. Pushing the breast away after a minute or 2 and not wanting to feed and then getting very upset but not going back on the breast.
I started expressing last week to give expressed milk during the day but found my supply wasn't great. By Sunday, exhausted from pumping and wrestling with my son on the breast I caved and got DH to go get formula as my son was so upset at that point and clearly not feeding enough. I've still been regularly pumping to keep my supply up.
He has been diagnosed with reflux (literally snorts milk from nose and mouth) and now on omeprazole.
However, he still feeds amazingly at night! Perfect feeder, every 3 hours for 30-40 mins on the breast then back to sleep like a dream. I feel like I have 2 different babies!!
Has anyone else experienced this? No idea what to do. I'm exhausted from pumping to keep up supply, working out how much formula to give and continuing to try to BF. I just want to go back to exclusive BF...
