@jetman1227 What formula do you use?

@yamyak I do pacefeed! I think the nipple size was too big for her. When they told me to switch to the Premie nipples, I got home and immediately noticed a difference in the way she ate. It was a lot better & no gulping or becoming wheezy.

@redvelvetcake Yeah, I definitely did not stick to not feeding her. It broke my heart even trying with 3 bottles. I’m just thinking it was the nipple size was too big for her. We switched down to premie nipples and it’s been so different already.

@dykema17 My pediatrician did say 3-3.5 every 2 hours is fine, though! So if you could push him to the 2 hours, that’s great!

@dykema17 Also, what symptoms did you have that caused the pediatrician to think this?

@dykema17 It’s so weird. How long have you been trying to get him to take less?

@godlover452 She was saying I was giving her too many ounces. Her nipple size was definitely too big, at least that’s what I think it is. I moved down one and it’s been such a difference

@godlover452 Gagging, gulping while eating, wheezing and sounding congested when eating, gassy, bloating

@alysson She usually sleeps 6 hour stretches. Now that I hear it, it does sound like quite a lot, but she’s always acting likes hungry. Attacking her paci, biting at her hands. So I just always give her more

@alysson She’ll be 6 weeks tomorrow. 5 oz every 2 hours

@yogosans14 Yeah I definitely agree. Already gave in & fed until she was content. I felt sooo bad

Hi! Has anyone experienced overfeeding? We went to the doctor today for certain symptoms, and we were told she is most likely being overfed & to change the nipple size. She was on size 1 nipple and was eating 5 oz. She did always seem to be uncomfortable with a lot of gas, bloating, and gagging...
