She is great in the day, content, and feeds well. I am still feeding her, but also now offer a few bottle feeds a day too. She was a big baby at 10.4lb and has since put on a good amt of weight.
Hence why the professionals dont want to know.
I have taken her to an oral specialist, HV, 2 x GPs, who all have confirmed on examination that she does not have tongue tie. Several have said it is 'just colic' and to ride it out.
The chiropractor said she is incredibly tense and clearly something is up.
Symptoms are :
Screaming as opposed to crying and completely inconsolable no matter what I do.
Trembling and rigid legs and back.
Shaking bottom lip.
Her tummy is round and solid.
Refusing sugar water or breast or bottle.
To date the only thing that settles her is utter exhastion, then in bed with me she takes a feed.
I am at my wits end, I cant rest in the day as have a 2yr old daughter, and am getting on average 3hrs sleep a night.
Everyone I have seen asks : Is she putting on weight and growing well, and the answer is yes, so that is that, just put up with the rest.
What is wrong with my lovely girl?
