 Topic: Seriously they call themselves dr’s

I took Josh to the Dr yesterday as we were sure something wasn't right with him. Turns out he is fine - no temp, ears were clear, chest was sounding good. But as he was off his food (back on it now), the dr said to increase the water in his bottles!?!?!? I told him I was BF and he looked at me as if I was strange. He said well maybe you should give him a bottle WTF?!?!?! I said to him it's quite allright i'll continue BF and just give him more feeds (more foremilk to get fluid in him) and he then said "oh you shouldn't do that just give him a bottle" I mean come on I am BF i'm not going to give that up as Josh decides to have an off day with his food. Lets just say I won't be seeing that dr again if I can help it.

That is crazy!! What an idiot!
I hate to think of less confident mums going to see him and thinking their BM wasn't enough or something!

OMG, the WHO would have a fit!!!
I wonder if there is something in the air though, as Jack is off his feeds too. Has had a small feed this morning and then crashed and back to bed.

Nope not usual doctor, but at the usual place we go to see our GP. Thats the breaks for going in afterhours when there was only 1 doctor on. I'm not going to be seeing him again.

Increase the water and decrease the formula. Something I am sure your not meant to do anyway.
