As far as feedings with the syringe and CC, I have been doing them 3-4 times a day, 10cc each time. The best tip I can give you is, My husband holds her, all wrapped up, and I do the feeding. I hold the syringe in one hand, and with the other hand, I kind of put my finger lightly on her jaw. I don't apply any pressure, this just helps me to keep her mouth straight and opened. I put about 1cc in at a time and let her swallow and get that bit out of her mouth before giving her another small squirt. It also helps to put the tip of the syringe almost in the side of her cheek. It sounds complicated, but after the first few feedings, when all 3 of us were covered in the CC, I had to try some techniques, and the past few days, there has only needed to be a very small swipe with a paper towel after the feeding. I hope all this helps.
