12 days old NB, crying and not getting enough sleep even though he’s tired
#pleasehelp #advicepls #firstbaby #firstTime_mom Hi Mommies, My 12 days old keeps crying after the nanny or I puts him down for his naps after feeding and burping. He sleeps for maybe 5-10 mins then wakes up crying repeatedly, his face is red and he arches his back a lot like he can’t get comfortable. This has been happening for the past 4 days. I’m not sure what to do. Is it colic? Please help! 🥲

Newborn baby with huge appetite
I need urgent advice from all mommies!! My baby girl is only 15 days old today but she is drinking a lot of milk which is starting to scare me!! From day 7 - day 14 she has been drinking 90ml formula milk each time, feeding is about once every 2 hours. Sometimes about 1 hour ++ she starts feeling hungry again, she rarely sleeps for 3 hours. From day 11 onwards she seems to still be hungry after 90ml so sometimes I do make extra milk and do till 100ml or 110ml max. Yesterday night onwards she seem to need 120ml otherwise she will just stay wide awake and keep turning her head searching for milk / put her hands in her mouth. She’s not even 4kg so 120ml seems to be too much for her (according to the advice on the milk tin 120ml is for 2 weeks - 3 months baby 4.5kg above and feeds 6 times a day but my baby girl drinks about 12 times a day). I did asked her PD which is Doctor Ang from TMC but the doctor advised to just keep feeding until she is full and had enough. She say the baby won’t continue drinking when she’s full. But that doesn’t sound very normal to me?? I’m also not sure if she’s drinking this much milk because I did not start her on the pacifier. If possible I do not wish to start her on pacifier at all. Pls give me golden tips on what to do!!! #advicepls #firsttimemom #firstbaby #First_Baby #firstTime_mom #firstmom
