Hi , wondering if anyone has gone through same or going through .. my daughter was born 6 weeks premature and when I feed her even after winding etc she's often sad and cries . ( only does this in the day ) it's not every feed but I feel like it's quite a few times . We're on comfort formula and we try gripe water but sometimes all I can do is stand by the extractor fan until she settles !

It's starting to get me down at times as sometimes nothing I do seems to help ! Maybe she's just being fussy.
Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thankyou 🙂

This might sounds really daft but have you tried taking her out in the pram or sling after a feed? She might be distracted. Possibly get her checked for reflux too, she could just be being fussy but she might not.

Hi , that's a good idea but dependent on the weather tbh lol and sometimes I'm just so tired !! I have mentioned reflux but she is easily settled after going by white noise and moving about it's just hard work ! I guess it's something that I've got to put up with until she grows out of it !!

Does she have wind a lot? Look up colic for symptoms/solutions. IF it is infacol MAY help x failing that speak to your MW/HV/GP x

Interested in this thread?
