ds is 2 weeks and struggling with trapped (bottom) wind. He is grimacing loads and waking up crying going purple until eventually he lets rip- sometimes a couple of hours later. It seems to be worse during the night for some reason; often the only way to calm him is to feed him, which I think ultimately makes it worse as it adds to the problem. He is feeding about every 2-3 hours during the day and is quite settled ge]nerally.
Is there anything I can do? We've been massaging his tummy, 'cycling' his lega and tried craniak osteopathy but little luck . I'm now stressing that it's something I'm eating/ not eating that's affecting my milk and upsetting him.
Please advise if you can, I hate seeing him like this
