My little one (7 weeks) is super fractious today, he’s been straining lots (which isn’t unknown) and flailing arms and legs when feeding, then finally pooing. I thought he would feel more comfortable after, but he continued to be fractious, flail his arms and legs when feeding and fussing at the boob and making noises that suggest he’s not comfy, and crying when he otherwise wouldn’t (he doesn’t often cry).
He’s had three poos today, the second was more a wet (very noisy) fart. I thought if it was gas/wind that was causing him this discomfort that he’d feel better after each poo/fart... however he doesn’t seem any better ☹️
Does this just sound like a gassy baby to you?
I’ve tried massage and Indian bouncing but he is too fractious, we’ve got gripe water on order (due to arrive tomorrow) so will see how that works. However, any help for this evening would be great please... 😬☹️
Thank you
