After initial problems latching baby was feeding well (she has gained over 1lb never lost weight on day 5) but in the last few days has been very unsettled in the evening and today seems uncomfortable .Arching her back and writhing as if she has trapped wind.
The breast feeding counsellor we saw on day 4 said she had a tongue tie but when she latched it was good (she is obviously transferring milk). She is now coming off the breast a lot on most but not every feed and I have noticed a clicking when she feeds. She also projectile vomits about once a day this does not seem to cause distress.
Could all of these be the tongue tie or something else? The midwife said colic but some of the symptoms don't fit she doesn't cry inconsolably she just seems uncomfortable/unhappy and she hiccups a lot.
Thanks in advance
