Rebecca is bottle fed, and has refused to bring up any wind since 1am!!! (2 feeds)

She is now getting crabby as obviously her little tummy is sore, but she just will not part with it.... WHAT CAN I DO?

Will be giving infacol from next feed..... anything i can do NOW?

Have you tried laying her on her tummy on your knees adn gently rocking her and rubbing her back? That used to work for mine.

BTW, saw your new pic of the girls - GORGEOUS! How you getting on hun?

Not too bad thanks mate.... just want her to part with this wind so she isnt so fractious!

Got Jess at docs this morning as not sure if what she has got is chicken pox or what....

DH is still recovering from his knee op last week so is about as much use as a chocolate teapot!

How about you? Hows things?

Aww, poor babies! I'm sure Rebecca will part with it as soon as it moves. And poor little Jess

I'm okay. Waiting to see what the scan says about the problem DH has got. Hoping and praying it isn't serious and I can have another baby.

Have you seen your Doctor yet?

Hiya sorry to butt in, but my dd (8 weeks) is a VERY windy baby, and i found infacol was good but my mum bought some woodwards gripe water round and its made a HUGE difference!! she is alot more settled, she used to wriggle and trump alot while she slept, but she's really settled now, and she burps like Barney!

Oh bless her! its actually from 4 weeks, sorry - useless suggestion then if she gets restless my friend tried laying our dd on her chest and rubbing her back - either in her arms or laid on her knee - it worked a treat!
