Update on SO giving DS formula.
He was constipated and had gas. He hadn't pooped all day because of the formula. All he did was fart. My grandma did the old thermometer trick. As she did it he was farting and finally a big wad of poop started running out.
He was crying all day. He was never cried like he did yesterday. Finally after a good poop his stomach softened up and the crying stopped. My baby was back and feeding right.
SO called last night to speak to my mom. Really? They talked for a while. He said he was coming over Wednesday, my birthday and the baby's 1 month check up.
We'll see how things go from there.

Why on earth would he call your mom? Id be pissed about that, to me it would feel like he was treating me like a child.
DS is doing much better and he slept better last night too with the occasional feeding and diaper change.
@debs: My mom told him about how DS was constipated and gassy was when they talked. That was another reason I wanted to wait until his doctors appointment because if I did have to supplement I wanted to know what type of formula to give him and how much to give him. I will bring it up at the appointment. I do that too when I have been giving unsolicited advice about my health and babies health. I hope my little man has put on some pounds to prove SO and his mom wrong. Show them that I'm doing a good job.
I don't get why people feel that they have to but in people lives because you aren't doing it how they did it. Let me raise my child how I want to. As long as he is healthy, thriving and happy that's all that should matter. Long as he isn't being neglected leave us alone.
It sucks that SO is still acting like that. When you go to the baby's appointment, make sure to actually ask the doctor what he thinks about your babies growth and his opinion on bf and ff and what he recommends and so on so that SO can actually hear it.
@jules: I talked to my cousin about taking me and she'll be there.
