only on day 3 but yesterday she was the most settled she’d ever been, she was falling asleep during feeds which never happens when she was on cow and gate she’d either cry during feeds or stay awake during the whole feed and cry and whinge afterwards and not settle, but yesterday she was falling asleep during and after every feed and seems really settled the only problem I’ve been having is getting her to drink the milk she doesn’t like it but I’ve been feeding her in her sleep as much as I can, another thing I’ve noticed is she’s less gassy I can barely even wind her now but it doesn’t seem to cause her pain, her reflux symptoms were also way better yesterday she didn’t have any signs of reflux, and another thing I noticed yesterday is she had times were she was awake but not crying, ever since my baby was 2 weeks old she has not been able to be awake without crying, but yesterday she was happily awake laying there and not crying I couldn’t believe it, she also relied less on her dummy yesterday she hardly wanted it at all compared to usual where it’s in her mouth nearly 24hrs a day and she usually screams without it, but last night she even went to sleep without her dummy, she did have her moments yesterday where she cried for it but only suckled it for a few minutes before spitting it out, she didn’t cry yesterday without a reason either she wanted her dummy or her bottle or to be held, normally she cries and nothing can fix her even this morning she’s had her bottle and gone to sleep I’m amazed but so scared to get my hopes up thinking it might just be a coincidence I really hope it’s real my baby has never been so settled

Hey I hope she is still continuing to do well. I had the same with my son with the change of milk and like you didn’t want to get my hopes up we are now on month 3 and he’s a completely different baby. He’s feeding is a bit all over the place, he varies in how much he drinks. He’s 4 months and can drink anything form 2-4oz every 2-3 hours. He just woke up from a 10hour sleep and only drank 3oz but is happy and content. He still has a bit of reflux but it’s improving as he gets older.
