Eating issue - please help!!
Dd is 6w today. She's been so crabby! She's just been grazing throughout the days (she's ff). Sometimes she acts like she's hungry, but when I give her a bottle she screams. She also has never taken to a binky. I feel like I'm holding her 24/7. What gives?

Is she tired? Sometimes DS acts hungry when he's just been fed, and I know he's really tired. Or, maybe she isn't getting enough at her feeding and is still hungry and just needs a bit more to feel full? Try adding a bit to her previous bottle.
At 6w I was still learning to read DS's signs. Just be patient!

I was thinking the same thing. My DD had reflux & that's how she acted. but she did grow out of it pretty quick.

I called my pediatrician... this will be the fourth formula we are going to try..
Nutramigen - anyone heard of it? Hopefully it'll help her, because this stuff is $$$, but I'll try anything!

Try seeing if your insurance will cover it!

dd is on nutramigen RTF--we tried a lot of different formulas and she did well on the powder but made her poops explosive, so we changed to RTF and it works great, unfortunately insurance did not cover it and it costs a lot of money but its worth it for her
