Question by Ivana S: Newborn gaining too much…?
My son was born tree weeks early – 5 lb 11 oz. I exclusively breastfeed him and he is gaining about a pound per week. He is 7 weeks now and weights 12 lb 1 oz already. He is also throwing up a lot – after eating and even 2 hours after. It is seems he is throwing up all the time. I breastfeed him always only from one breast for about 10 min on demand – usually every 3 hours during the day and every 4 hours at night. He had an ultrasound done for reflax and something else I am not sure how it is called. But everything was negative. Dr. told me that I am overfeeding him and it is why he is throwing up. She told me that I should limit feedings and try to give him pacifier more often to satisfy the sucking reflex. Is the weight gain really too fast? Should I be worried that it could be something more serious? What should I do about the throwing up? Please help! Thank you.

I was allergic to my mothers breast milk.
Is that a possibility for your son?

Question by : My 8 year old just projectile vomited all over his bed as well as my bathroom wall. He did this after he?
complained of a tummy ache. I am just getting over salmonella but he didn’t eat any of the food I bought at the restaurant. Is it possible for him to catch salmonella from my outbreak?

Answer by Sade May
I don’t think it’s possible, but if he continues to throw up it probably is food poisoning, or something as serious and should go to the hospital or a doctor, soon.

Question by Baby Girl has a broken heart: I’m so stressed out about everything in my life. I just want to die.?
Nothing has ever been good in my life. When I was born, I had a heart attack, and I had to have surgery, and my dad thought I was going to die, so he decided to protect his emotions, and just not care about me. That way when I die, he won’t be sad. Then 2 years later, my parents got a devorce. And my dad got custody of me and my older sister. But he didn’t want us because we interfered with his dates, so he gave us to his mom. She took care of us for a year, and then he thought he wanted us back, so he got us back, and on the weekends, he let us go see our mom, so he could take a break from us. One day, when I was 4, I was at my mom’s house for the weekend, and after she went to bed, her husband got up, and raped me, and his friends paid him to let them all have turns too. And then I told my real dad about it, and my step dad had to go to jail, and my mom thought I was lying, so she moved to Germany, and won’t talk to me. And then my dad decided to send us back to my grandma where I was kind of happy, but I went to a bad school, and the students hated me and a few tried to kill me sometimes. When I was 12, my dad got remarried, and moved in with my grandma and us, and then when he moved away again, we had to go with him. His new wife beat us all the time, and at first my dad would take up for us, but after a while, he stopped caring and decided to help her beat us. So I went through daily beatings even though I did nothing wrong, for the next 6 years, while I cleaned their house, and raised their 2 sons, giving up my childhood to raise 2 kids. Then when I was 18, my dad broke my ribs, and was about to kill me, so I got up and ran away (with broken ribs) to a friend’s house, where I stayed the night. The next day, at school, I found my boyfriend and asked if I could move in with him, and he said yes. So I did. And then 2 years later, we had a baby, and we were happy. And then I found out he was cheating on me with guys, and I’ve been going through hell ever since then. And I can’t leave because I’m German and I can’t get a house, car, job, or anything else. I can’t go back to my parents, so I’m stuck with him forever. And he is gone all day every day. He doesn’t buy me food or clothes or anything. Well, we get food, but I’ve been without for a few days before. And I’m still wearing the same clothes that I’ve had since I was 12. And my son gets stuff from my in laws, like clothes, toys, beds, and stuff. So he doesn’t go without, which is good. He sleeps with me because I get lonely, and he’s the only person that loves me. So it comforts me to be close to someone that I love, and he returns the love. So we do everything together, and I spend every second of my life with him. He’s 2 years old now. He is the only thing keeping me from killing myself, although I have attempted suiside a few times, but he keeps me from doing it so much. But all of the stress in my life is making me sick. Very sick. I have hallucinations. I get migrains all the time. I’m never in good health. I black out at least once a week, and each blackout usually lasts a few hours. And I’m so stressed that I can’t eat anything, and I can’t stop throwing up. I just don’t know what to do any more. I still want to kill myself, but then I can’t because if I do, then my son won’t have anyone, and my boyfriend will probably be too busy for him and give him away. And I don’t want anything bad to happen to him, so I have to stay alive for him, but its just so hard. And I can’t go to a hospital or theropy or councling or anything like that because I can’t drive, and my boyfriend won’t let me. So whatever I do, I have to do myself in my home.

I’m looking for advice from other new and experienced moms alike. What’s your take?
Also, I forgot to add that the pediatrician suggested adding rice cereal to her feedings because of an acid reflux scare we had earlier this week. We haven’t experienced any problems with her feedings since we started adding rice cereal!

Answer by momoftwins
You should be feeding them at 2-3 hrs. 4-5 is too long to eat again. and no 2-3 oz is just right

If shes formula fed try switching her to a different one. Also anywhere from 24-32 oz a day for a 5 month old is fine.

Question by Skylight: Burping baby?
Is it normal for a newborn to throw up milk/formula if they don’t burp? I tried burping my son so much this last feeding but he only burped once and then threw up this was after eating 2 ounces

Best answer:

Answer by Bun & Bub’s Mama
Spitting up is normal, period. He might have spat up from not burping, but he might have spat up from being full, too (Even from just two ounces).

Chances are the amount he threw up is a lot less than it appears to be, too.

Answer by Sassafras
Since it isn’t directly states I’m assuming the stone is kicked horizontally and starts with the vertical component of velocity at 0. If this is the case then vi is irrelevant. The only thing you need is “h”.

Using the basic position equation
y-y0 = v0t – 0.5gt^2
v0 = 0
so
y-y0 = -0.5gt^2
-50 m = -0.5gt^2
t = sqrt (100 m/g)
t = sqrt (100 m/9.8 m/s^2)
t = 3.2 s

Question by gsaltares: Cat Lovers, I need some advice…please?
Ok, Mickey is my baby. She was in the streets when we got her and she was about 1 month old with no momma cat around. Mickey is now over a year old and she is a new mommy of 3 adorable kittens. She is a great mommy and she trusts us completely…she not only lets us play with her kittens she actually plays with us and her kittens together. I think she even uses us a babysitters sometimes, LOL. I just want everyone to know how special she is so you can understand how much she means to us. My worry is that since the kittens were born she still eats alot but she is very skinny and she is throwing up almost every day (vomit is watery with hard food bits as if she ate very fast and it just came right up). Mickey’s personality hasn’t changed much…she still plays alot, shows lots of love and affection, talks alot, sleeps good, and is a great mommy. She doesn’t act sick, I have never dealt with anything like this.

She eats Friskies indoor cat formula (hard food), 2-3 pouches of friskies soft food, and fresh water 2-3 times a day.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Am I worrying for no reason? Should I be doing something different? Now since the kittens are only 2 weeks old (today is their b-day), should I take Mickey and kittens to the vet? About how much would it cost to take Mickey and her kittens to the vet?

Mickey is not a pet she is part of my family and we need to help her we just don’t know how…please help.

Best answer:

Answer by Rose
Is the Vomit Yellow? If so there is not much you can do because that means Distemper.
Take Mickey and her kittens to the vet just too make sure nothing is wrong.
My vet charges $ 20 for and office Visit so it depends on the vet, you can call them and ask them.
Also I suggest you feed Mickey Kitten Chow or Pregnant Cat/kitten food as it has more protein and nutrition in it. She is Nursing so she needs that kind of food not her normal everyday food.
I have not seen many nursing cats vomiting after they eat so a vets opinion will be best.
No you are not worrying for no reason.
Take her to the vet is all.
Yes The vet can check kittens and there mothers out right after there born so no need to worry about that.
Sometimes cats do not show they are sick.

I absolutely hate when people say “I want my children to have both parents” well of course you do!!! But your bf there doesn’t!! So wtf are u gonna do? Keep whining and crying cuz its best for your sons ? Hell no. Your gonna do what’s best for YOU and move back home, get the help you deserve and leave the decision up to baby daddy whether or not he wants to stay in their lives. Your babies are babies. They won’t remember anything.
