Pete:

Try setting it back even lower like to 80 with 2 cans in and one can full of water and let it run overnight. Thats a trick to get extra hydration by adding water. For me, I had to add the water cuz my stomach couldnt tolerate straight formula.

You made me smile when you said you woke up full of sweat, sorry. One night my alarm went off and I found that I was drenched in formula....YUCK!!!! I would have preferred the sweat smile Another time I must have been having some weird dreams cuz I had the tubes all wrapped around me like spagetti on a fork. Sometimes I would start to run to the bathroom still connected to the pump. It took me almost a year to be able to look back and laugh at those situations and see how far Ive come.

Its all trial and error with the pump feedings. Hopefully by the time you get it perfected, you wont need it anymore.
