Ds seems to be in pain when lying down on right hand side

9 week old ds sometimes cries and fusses manically when feeding off left breast and lying on his right side. If I switch to rugby hold so he lies on his left he's ok.

It doesn't happen all the time and I've posted before about his incredible gassiness.

Does this have anything to do with reflux? Silent or otherwise?

TIA

i think its just trapped wind,painful for him thpugh,is he breast or bottle ?-it may just be an old wives tale but shorter feeds with winding in between might help?baby massage is good too or even something like infacol if you think its hurting him.

He's bf, and been using Ontario for ages as he is so windy. Sometimes nothing will come up, or else he'll throw up all the milk he's just had :-(

im no expert and i dont want to make you paranoid but do you think its anything you eat that upsets his system?

Ontario !!?? Obv meant infacol!

Have recently, since last week cut dairy out of diet to see if it helps.

Must be more wind if it doesn't happen all the time
