My 8 week old baby has been suffering from terrible colic to the point where we took her to hospital because she was in so much pain. We have tried everything from colief to infacol, dentinox, gripe water, gaviscon, dr browns bottles, nothing seems to work. One dr told me to stop breastfeeding, saying that it was causing the problem! Being a first time mum, I listened and stopped for 24 hours but cried the whole time because I didnt want to gove up. I have started again but my milk supply has almost dried up so I am giving her formula as well. We took her to the doctors yesterday and they suggested that she might be lactose intollerant so they gave me som lactose free formula and suggested that I give up dairy products as well, which I have. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this or has any advise. Im just so fed up with seeing her in pain, not to mention exhausted from lack of sleep because she won't let me put her down. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
