Baby gassy pains

DS is 7 weeks old. For a while now he's struggled with squirming around with gas pains, wriggling around to get them out at night. We have tried everything: gripe water, infacol, winding after feeds, bicycle legs, tummy massage before bed, bath before bed. No tongue tie (ruled out by IBCLC) and no CMA allergy (ruled out by HV and GP).

He's breastfed mostly - sometimes has a bit of formula top up when it's DH shift and we've run out if expressed milk. We're seeing if changing the formula to anti-colic will help.

He's woken up multiple times with this gassy pain every night.

I supposed it could be something I'm eating but can't know what it is? Tired and desperate!

It might be useful having a look at this from Allergy UK regarding the CMPA. Sometimes it can be missed by HVs & GPs.
