Update
Thank you everyone who has commented, emailed and given me support and advice with Taylor! I took her to the doctors again today, and this one wasn't much help either. I am now convinced that it is something with her digestive/intestinal/bowel system. It comes and goes in waves and she tenses up screams, and then farts. Ever since she was born I have had to help her poop, and if I don't she will go 4-5 days without pooping. The doctor said the typical, "feed her prunes, give her water..." and I said, "I feed her prunes every morning!" They are having me switch her formula, which I don't think she'll do since it was a nightmare finding this one that she would drink. She is now refusing to eat any solids and only wants to breastfeed (I am feeding her 1/2 breast milk and 1/2 formula). I was referred to a gastroenterologist...so I am waiting for that appointment. So, that's the latest...any new ideas?

Good luck with the gastroenterologist (all those years of medical transcription paid off)!
Just curious, what kind of formula were you feeding her?
I hope they can figure out what's wrong!
Here is what I do with the tanner and it seems to work. I apply two pumps on my lower legs and about three for my thigh. At first it might seem like a lot but keep rubbing and it will eventually blend in I even blend down onto the top of my feet. I apply two pumps to my arms and shoulder and shoulder blades, as far back as I can reach. I apply two pumps across my chest and up my neck. I pretty much put the tanner everywhere. I have never gotten streaks when using it. Let me know how it works out!
