3 week old baby

Is she like it all the time ? My baby has been like this and would always be after I had anything like milkshake cereal cheese now we’re trying to work out if he has a milk allergy might not be the same but just a thought x

I had this and midwife said it may be the lactose in dairy that the baby is struggling to break down, so not an intolerance/allergy. She said it was important to get calcium for myself and breastfeeding and to try co-lactace drops.

often daily, i funny enough did wonder about dairy as it seemed to be awful on a day I had dairy but yesterday I didn’t have dairy but she was still very upset all last night I had around an hour sleep all night x

My baby girl has been the same extremely uncomfortable especially at night.. she developed a rash and doctor said she has cows milk protein allergy (not Lactose)
I have cut all dairy from my diet as she is BF and the rash improved.. you can also be prescribed special milk formula.
She also has reflux and has been given medication for as this makes her unsettled too.
I think you should speak to you doctor, hope you get her more settled and some more rest yourself x

dairy can take a week or two to leave your system so it could still be. My boy is formula fed but this is how he was on dairy, legs flailing as his little tummy was just so sore bleed him! Worth an experiment to see if it helps, and second the co lactose drops

Yes like Katherine said unfortunately it can take a couple of weeks for us to get the dairy out of our systems :( I’m on day five of no dairy and have seen an improvement but he’s no where near symptom free xx

Sounds a bit like silent reflux?

Onions and garlic for me, and red peppers! I’ve noticed he’s crying in pain after I eat these more than other foods x

I would say either
Colic
Reflux
Or milk allergy

People 2ill jump straight to milk allergy but that's not always the case

Just here to say, she is absolutely beautiful!xx

My little girl is 9 weeks and she was like how you are describing your baby. I was really worried she also struggled pooing as well and would go weeks. I thought she had an allergy to something I was eating or was lactose intolerant. It turns out she had severe colic. The GP prescribed baby gaviscon and it works very well. Maybe see if this helps.

aww thank you so much!! She melts my heart xx

if anything her poo is more watery😭 I’ll keep an eye on it! Thank you!!x

This is exactly the same as my baby I’m having problems with as well😩

exhausting isn’t it!!x
