I’m at my wits end!! My LB hasn’t fed very well from the start. I combined fed but stopped breast feeding last week. We found out he had a tongue tie and so thought when he had that sorted he’d be ok but he’s not. He gets slightly better then worse again. He doesn’t take more than 1-2oz at a time so is up all the time in the night. When he feeds he gulps and you can hear the milk hitting his belly. We’ve tried infacol and coleif drops which help with his wind but he still screams when feeding. I’m knackered and don’t know what to do! X

You haven't mentioned the most important bits!!

A- how many Oz is he taking in the avg 24hr period.

B- how old is he.

C- what window?

1-2oz every 3hrs at 6 weeks would be fine; 1-2oz at 8 months every 6hrs would not.

It's so dependant on the missing information no one can advise here yet
