Feed equals pain

It seem that at the minute each feed that is given to Danny causes him a lot of pain, this happens from the moment the milk hits his stomach. At one point this afternoon he was in so much pain that it drove Jules to tears, once I’d settled her down I went to speak to to the nurse who was looking after him. I told her that it seemed cruel to keep forcing him to feed when he was really in pain each time food was given, she agreed and went to speak to the doctor. He then came to speak to me so I explained to him the same as I had already to he went off to consult the surgeons to see what thay wanted to do. When he returned he told the nurse that he should be given smaller feeds every 1hr instead of every 2hrs…..did he not hear what I told him?! The nurse said to him that the problem was that as soon as the feed hit his stomach he was in pain, so he then decided to stop the next 2 feeds and re-asses him again later on. So much for listening
