Baby poo and constant straining

[Tibetha]

Hi all,

My little one spends hours straining often it makes him cry
His poo is normal but he seems so unhappy
Is this normal?
It’s jnbearbale to

My phone went a bit mad then!

The post was meant to say it’s unbearable to watch, the doctor says it’s normal but he seems in pain, surely that’s not right?

He’s very windy aswell, we’ve tried leg cycling and tummy rubs but nothing seems to help!

Could be a cow milk allergy? My DS had similar symptoms - spending most of the day straining, discomfort and eventually blood in nappies. Switched milk and the symptoms disappeared within a few days. Took many weeks to get the new milk. It's hard to watch them in discomfort, hope he gets better soon.

Is he BF or FF?
My LO was like that, we changed her to SMA comfort milk (we were using Aptimil pro something) and she’s perfect now, goes twice a day and makes a little noise and is fine/no more crying all day.

Thanks all for getting back to me

He's mainly breast fed but sometimes has a bottle if he is still hungry, we've tried 3 different brands of milk but he seems the same
It's so hard to watch and he's been like this for over a month now :(
