I'm Hungry Mum
That seems to be what Joshua has been trying to tell me with all his screaming. Last week the health nurse came for her regular visit & I mentioned how unsettled Joshua had been... screaming for hours on end & feeding almost constantly (when not screaming of course!!). She suggested that this along with the fact he hadn't gained very much weight could suggest perhap I wasn't producing enough milk & to try supplementing with formula. Well it seems to have worked. He has been much more settled this week & no screaming, just the normal unsettledness periods of a 1mth old, & he has gained 350g. Of course it does mean I now have the hassle of washing & sterilising bottles, & carrying bottles, formula & all that when we go out. But it's worth it for a more contented, healthy baby.
