My 7 week old has been taking infacol before formula feed. Last week started getting wind quite bad and an hour after feed, cried in real discomfort, goes red, clenches fists etc. I know this is wind as it goes in waves and he trumps a lot. I tried gripe water, but it made no difference. The infacol helps him do good burps after feed but doesn't stop the discomfort an hour later.
He is at his worst at 7pm where it lasts 40mins and then goes away and he falls asleep.
He doesn't get it though during night, it's just in the day.
I was wondering if to try colief, but it says this is for intolerance. He's not intolerant, he will possett if not kept upright and sometimes regurgitates a bit of curdled later if it hasn't digested fully, but he is not sick.
Does colief help? If he isn't intolerant and I use it, will it affect his developing digestive system as he gets older? Or will not do him any harm? Am not just better sticking with infocol?
