Back again with another rant… my son is 8 months currently going through a sleep regression, teething & another bloody cold!!!
he’s currently taking 6/7oz but to actually get him to take the full feed is a nightmare. We keep coming back to these issues, it’s becoming sooo frustrating. We have a good run for a week or so then something happens and it seems to be back to square 1. I’m honestly at my wits end. He’s got his 2 bottom teeth coming, they’ve broken through the skin but the last 3 days I would say anytime we’re attempting a feed he’s spitting the milk out after accepting the teat? Even during night feeds when he’s more sleepy he’ll take 2/3oz then just begin to spit the milk out. I’ve been offering water as he’s had fewer wet nappies than normal.
Ive gave him cough medicine & nurofen as and when needed throughout the day to make him feel better but nothings working. He’s whingeing because he’s hungry but then barely feeding? The same with solids he won’t actually eat anything just more so throw it all about
I see other mums having such an amazing time with their kids and I’m envious. I barely have energy to shower on a daily basis, it’s just so so hard to be positive when it’s here’s constant hurdles
i suppose I’m just looking for some reassurance that this will pass like everything else I feel like such a bad mum but I genuinely am hating this period. From 6 months + has been nothing but chaos constantly I’m so over it
