After DS was born, I was EBF. Painful and DS was very unsettled, excessive wind that was very difficult to get out, a lot of crying, and probably not feeding enough either. He was diagnosed with a tongue tie about 10 days in and for a couple of weeks sfter that I did a combination of EBM and formula. There was huge improvement: he fed well on the bottle, far less wind and easy to get it out, slept well, almost no crying. After having the tie snipped a week ago at 3.5 weeks, I have started BF again and topping up with formula (not enough BM supply). His latching and tongue mobility are a bit better, but otherwise things are now back to the way they were at the beginning: he just doesn't settle, and if he does he is up 5 min later crying his eyes out, until we manage to get all the trapped wind out (which is again very difficult).
Has anyone come across this? He has been having breast milk throughout so it cant be the milk as such, the one difference now is that part of the feed is directly from the breast..
