Hope will be better...
Marcus’s growth was quite satisfactory in the first 3 months (breast feed and milk powder). Then he started to vomit, nearly at least once every day, average 1 to 2 oz out of 4.5 oz he had. Even we already cut the midnight milk for him, we let him have the midnight milk again. And one of the reason for his vomit was that he always moved his body when he was having milk and that it’s very difficult to 掃風, so we only let him drink milk after he felt into sleep (but another difficulty was that he refused to drink milk if he was already in deep sleep, so we need to catch the right time while he was just slept!) and we carried him at least 45 mins before putting him into his bed! However, his vomit problem was not improved much!
After he was 6 months, we started to feed him cereal and congee…but he disliked both, could only eat 1 Tbsp congee in 1 hour and sometimes even vomitted! Grandma was v frustrated as she made lots of effort in preparing the congee. Doctor encouraged us that as Marcus was born underweight (just 2.14kg), we needed to be v patient in feeding him in 多餐少食(at 3 hour interval) no matter milk or congee! So the difficult days kept on going!
At about the 8th month, Marcus got a flu. After that, his appetite improved a lot – just vomit 3-4 times a week and could finish two half bowl daily. To improve the vomit situation, the doctor advised us to replace 1 milk by cereal, thus making Marcus’s feeding schedule as follows :-
After seeing Marcus’s progress for a month, we gradually cut the 12:00am milk, prolonged the 9:00pm milk to 10:00pm and finally cut the mid-night milk at mid-Aug.
You know what, Marcus can only finish 6 oz milk when he is already 9 month old!
Now he can drink 7 oz and eat 1 small bowl of cereal and two 3/4 medium bowl of congee daily, even he is still skinny – only slightly above 15 pounds at early Aug (9.5month old)!
