We have 15-day-old boy and we would greatly appreciate practical ideas for helping him asap, please.

Background and Birth

• Mom in 40s, Chinese ancestry, lives in UK
• Mom hypermobile
• Challenging pregnancy, lots of nausea and exhaustion
• Mom admitted with pre-eclampsia at 35 weeks
• Mechanical, then hormonal induction at 37 weeks
• Had epidural, then went from 4cm to 8cm dilated in 2 hours
• Baby heart rate cycling low, baby in distress, so "immediate threat to life" emergency C-section
• Resuscitation needed - apgar scores at 1, 5, 10 minutes were 2, 6 and 10
• But O2 saturation did not fall low enough to warrant additional observation
• No vaginal seeding done

After Birth

• Baby sleepy, borderline jaundice, put on uv blanket
• Mom was struggling, did not wake baby to feed, and colostrum/milk production low
• Day 3 baby weight down 12.7% from birth, supplemental feeding started
• Day 15 all now trending in right direction, 99% of birth weight, milk production and breast latching better, still supplementing with formula

Things We're Doing

• Attempting to increase proportion of daily feed that is breast milk
• Giving 100 million L. reuteri daily since day 12
• Getting him a few minutes of morning sun (not dawn) naked or with just diaper
• Increasing maternal probiotic consumption
• Hasn't yet had a bath

Concerns and Questions

1. Infant microbiome - obvs likely to be impoverished, what more can we do? Is maternal fecal transplant doable and wise, and if so by what route? What about skin microbiome?
2. In what other ways may missing out on passage through birth canal have affected him? How can we ameliorate those impacts?
3. Formula has sunflower and rapeseed/canola oils high on ingredients list - anything we can do about this?

Other Info About Parents

• Use blueblockers, good sleep hygiene
• Good sun exposure (for UK!)
• Below average levels of nnEMF
• Mom is conventional doctor, also trained in functional medicine & western medical acupuncture
• Taken methylfolate for years
• We do have access to raw cow's milk locally

Right now we don't have time or energy to read the entire Quilt and work it all out for ourselves. We would GREATLY welcome any pointers you can give us on the three numbered questions, above.

Thank you, from Kevin, Mom and baby boy.

"Formula has sunflower and rapeseed/canola oils high on ingredients list - anything we can do about this?"

Make baby formula?

This is an example. Maybe buying each ingredient separate and changing some -- multivitamin, probiotics, DHA, and maybe MCT oil instead of grapeseed -- would make it better and cheaper.

@Jack Kruse
DHA supplement mostly in sn-2 position to add to baby formula?

@Kevin Burch
On Facebook is a group called Mitochondriacs. Someone in that group might know of a good DHA supplement.

"Background and Birth
No vaginal seeding done"

Is it not good to do that after 15 days? Why not do that at home?

Correct respiration
QI GON

Upon sunrise
Cast words of gratitude
With arms open and fingers open to the height of your heart
Breath in with diagram
Then fingers open both hands on each breast breath out

This idea came from Dr Kruse from hes Mexico talk
You can also use the finger open technique
For other organs yes you have to use both hands

Now here my idea
Ideally use a tape recorder and record when baby is crying for food ( to confirm is food put you finger on he’s libs if avoid then is something else)
Have someone Play the recording at the moment when touching breast with fingers open
