Soooo we started the paci weaning kit from Frida a a weekish ago and fuck, it has broken my 2 year olds sleep. For context, she is definitely a unicorn sleeper. Sleeping 12 hours uninterrupted through the night since 6 weeks. Never had a 4 month regression or any other regression. A few bad nights over two years but really it’s something she’s just always had down. And then we removed the pacis/ started the Frida ones. She wakes up like 3-4 times a night now. What should we be doing? Letting her fuss it out? Comforting her? Will she learn to sleep without them? Someone help. Should we ditch the weaning kit? Desperado. Also have a newborn sooo we are just up all night haha

My baby is 11 weeks and was born at the 15th percentile for weight. All in all he's had 0 health concerns, but he is a littler guy. My daughter who is now 2 was always more like the 20-25th percentile. He's been formula fed since birth and his first two weeks of life he was a voracious eater. I forget exactly what he gained but our Dr said he had never seen anything like it haha. Then it really tapered off. We have tried formula changes, bottle/nipple changes, timing changes etc etc, but nothing really does it. His intake has settled around 17-20 oz a day. He is still gaining weight and following the growth curve but it totally freaks me out. My dr has assured me it really is fine, but I still get in my head about it, especially in a world where everyone I know seems to have a 99th percentile baby lol. Anyway, anyone else have light eating babies? For example, yesterday, he did 6 oz at 8am, then literally ate nothing at 11 am, ate 6 oz at 2pm, nothing at 5pm, and another 4.5 oz at 8pm. He then slept until 8am this morning where he only took 4.5 oz. It's crazy to me that he's sleeping through the night on such little food, but my Dr told us we don't need to wake him??? Looking for support, tips, solidarity, anything. I am just so in my head about it.

So frustrated right now. We used the Baby Brezza with our first and loved it, so we didn’t think twice about using it again with our second. Our son is 8 weeks old and we recently switched him to Enfamil Gentlease at our pediatrician’s suggestion.

Over the last few weeks, Baby Brezza has sent out TWO setting changes for Gentlease. I didn’t think much of it at first, but today they emailed saying the correct setting should actually be 7 instead of 5. After looking into it more, it seems like his bottles may have been diluted this whole time.

He’s already a smaller baby (17th percentile for weight), so I’m honestly really upset thinking he may not have been getting the calories we thought he was. We’re switching to hand-mixed bottles for now, but just wanted to give other parents a heads up in case you’re using the Brezza with Gentlease or relying heavily on the settings being accurate.
