DD is 7 months and we're having to supplement about 50% of DD's milk intake with formula due to DD not wanting to BF anymore. We use to supplement only one feeding with Similac Advance here and there and DD did great with it. The last three weeks DD's has been getting 2-3 bottles/day and spitting up 5-6 times after each bottle. When DD does BFs, she only spits up 1-2 times. She's always had a bit of a reflux problem. We decreased solids and that was not the problem. DD also has two teeth but they already broke through so it's not an issue either.
This week our pedi recommended we switch to Nestle Good Start. DD is now spitting up 3-4 times/bottle. I'm concerned about DD's well being. And fed up with having puke on everything! All her sheet savers/clothes/toys are ruined (squash, peas and other lovely stains) and I'm going broke feeding the local laundrymat.
I called our Pedi again today and she suggested that we go from 4 feedings to 8! guess giver her tummy more time to digest. It's like we're back to the beginning. DD is hating it because she loves to eat and 2 oz every 1 to 1.5 hrs aggravates her. Has anyone dealt with this? Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated.
TIA!
