18 week dd still has colic. I'm not convinced this is normal or even that its all colic!

DD was born on 75th centile she has dropped to below the 25th centile.

She has always had colic symptoms, wind, pains, screaming etc.

She is currently being weighed every 2 weeks, is developing well except she isn't putting on enough weight and continues to drop on the charts slowly. Her length is on the 50th centile.

We are still having problems with colic. She is formula fed. Over the last 5 days she is down to 4-5 bottles of only 4-6ozs. She is not interested in any more milk. She sleeps well for a baby, its not reflux but Im not convinced it can still be colic.

I feel bad going to a gp about this as it doesnt seem urgent enough.

I had exactly the same thing. Turned out ds had a milk allergy. It took me until he was 3.5 months old ro get anyone to listen to me.

He went onto wysoy and was fine.

Just another option. Hope you get it sorted soon.

My dm has come over to help me with her so I can sort out ds who's behaviour is getting worse because he's being pushed out so much. She also agrees it's not like dd to behave like this and something must be wrong. I think I need to go back to the GP.
