Dentinox or colief?

The last few days with DD are becoming unbearable as she is crying and fussing during and after almost every feed. She used to drain her bottles but now is not even getting halfway before becoming fussy and crying and nothing will pacify her. She seems like she is in pain.

I am guessing she is suffering from wind/colicky so I am considering trying colief or dentinox? She is on EBM via MAM anti colic bottles. I have read that colief needs to be administered 30 minutes before a feed but at the moment with DD I feel this will be near impossible as she has no routine currently because she isn't finishing her bottles and takes various amounts each time and therefore just wakes (once she finally settles to sleep) for her next feed whenever she is ready.

A colleague of mine recommended dentinox that she said was a life saver for her. Has anyone used any of these and found them helpful? And how did you administer them?

Colief and dentinox are completely different products. Colief breaks down the lactose in the milk and dentinox does something else. You could use them at the same time if you wished.

Think colief can be used in a couple of ways depending on whether you are breast or formula feeding so you'd need to check the instructions
