Accepted Answer

Need labwork: Women can be perimenopausal for 15 years before actual menopause. Progesterone is the first hormone to decline, but hot flashes & night sweats can be related to thyroid or cortisol abnormalities, & other disorders. A doctor with a special interest in anti aging medicine would do a history & physical exam, along with appropriate labwork to determine cause. Go with bioidentical hormones, if needed.

Accepted Answer

Yes: It's ok for an infant up to 3 month to be fed every 3 hours on the formula and every 2 hours on the breast milk. Your baby might experience a colic which is considered to be normal variant in most of the babies. Clockwise abdomen  massage, warm towel, rocking, colic drops, whatever it takes, but it would eventually go away. Be sure your baby is gaining weight and have regular bowel or wet diapers.
