Any idea why my baby was so upset?!

Cautiously cautiously hopeful we've improved the worst of the gas related screaming from last few weeks with infacol and sling and last few days til last night ds seemed far more comfortable and relsxed. Last night he had meltdown though from eight to eleven but not like before in that the cry was diffetent, no tears or the body movements he makes with gas and stopped and started over the evening as if we'd calm him down then he remembered he was upset and start again. Did seem to be hungry but would only feed briefly then stop and yet when started again seemed starving. Changed him, walked him, sang to him, cuddled him and in the end he just suddenly stopped. No idea why he was upset or how to help him if happens again... Vague feeling might be painful general digestion without the awful gas but clutching at straws!!! Any ideas or advice? Thank you!!!!

Not what you wanted to hear but much better to have an actual reason. Now you can stop worrying and work on helping the poor little thing to feel better do he can woo you with a big melty grin!

Well done for going to get him checked out.

There's a good Facebook support group for babies with reflux, it might be worth while joining for ideas and support. Lots of us have used ranitidine and know what you're going through.
