Wind and griping pain

2 replies

Hello,
My son is now 10 weeks.
He still doesn't take a whole feed and never has. He has 2 oz then another 2oz in two hours.
He struggling with bringing wind up but brings it down in his bottom. We can tell he has discomfort in his tummy and has bubbling and gurgling noises which is new.
He has been through having infacol, colief, infant gaviscon, sma milk allergy milk ( which he did not get on with and was vomitting) then omeprazole (which we didn't have him on for long as he was so distressed taking the medication and vomitting).
We have gone back to using nothing for the last 2 weeks and now he has what was mentioned above. Can anyone help? He doesn't sleep more than 2hrs due to wanting milk and can't seem to drink it as in pain.

Gripe water has been a godsend for us but check the minimum age which I think is 8 or 12 weeks? I give it using the syringe which came with dentinox. I have read that infacol makes reflux worse due to orange flavour. I also have to do regular tummy massage and bicycle legs to ease the wind. Hope that helps a bit!

Sounds like he might have CMPA. I'd give Allergy UK a call and talk it through with them.

Which milk is he currently on?
