Cows milk allergy or something else?

I have a ten week old baby who has always been very gassy and in general just an unhappy boy.

Especially overnight he gets more and more uncomfortable until finally he farts lots and poos and then he gets better but this is after hours of him groaning and wriggling about in pain. His poos are a green/yellow liquid, I don’t think they’re mucus though.

He never sleeps for longer than an hour over night (if that) but does sleep better during the day if you hold him. I’m exhausted!

During the day he is a bit better but still farts lots after naps and is very quick to cry.

Could it be a cows milk allergy or something else? If your lo has it, what we’re their symptoms?

It breaks my heart seeing him like this. We hardly ever leave the house cause it’s like he just hates life and cry’s the whole time 😞

Doesn't sound like CMPA/I to me. The grunting at night is very normal. I would say it sounds more like silent reflux or just 4th trimester.

I agree with PP, doesn’t sounds like CMPA. My DD has confirmed CMPA and her symptoms started within days of being born. Bright green, repulsive Smelling (sulphur) liquid poos, all over rash, unable to keep any milk down with projectile vomiting, terrible reflux, screaming for hours all day and night and clearly in pain.
