I've got a 3 month old with a horrible cold, reflux, constipation while also teething - can see two bottom ones and the hint of two top ones.

Calpol isn't even touching it. He is crashing out for 5 minutes then waking up, screaming for 10 minutes. Nothing is settling him.

We've done warm baths, steam, massage, teething toys and dummy things, actual dummies, gripe water, bike legs etc etc etc.

This is day 3 and I'm so done.

Any other tips?

Nurofen? Can give it alongside Calpol.

Nurofen is best for teething.

I would be worried about a baby so young being constipated. Are they ff or bf?

Reflux, constipation, congestion and grumpy are all allergy signs.

Calpol vapour plug in might help at least with a the cold. Is he old enough for neurofen? I found that helps better than calpol for teething. Can he have some bonjella too?

He's had bowel problems since birth. My eldest was the same and grew out of it.

I've picked up ibuprofen today. He'll not tolarate any form of gel (or fingers other than his) going into his mouth.
