My brother and sister in law have recently had a baby. They have been struggling since she was born with colic, general unsettledness, and constipation.
I don’t want to overstep the mark, which is why I haven’t said anything but I’ve noticed a few things that they could be doing which could potentially be causing the above issues. They will give her a 5/6 oz bottle without any breaks, she will drink it so quickly she’s often sick, they don’t wind her during the bottle and afterwards they will maybe try for a minute or two and just stop without her getting any wind up. I think she could just be suffering with trapped wind and drinking her bottles way too quickly?
they are first time parents and I do have my own kids, but I don’t want to come across rude or like a know it all, because I genuinely just want to help and it’s sad to see her in a lot of discomfort. I’m not sure how it would be received, which is also why I potentially haven’t said anything? What does everyone think?
