Advice needed 😞😞Really bad colic or reflux maybe

My 4 week old is fine during the day but around bed time she screams for like 1-2 hours nothing soothes her she rejects bottle sometimes and when she does feed there’s a lot of spit up. Tried everything warm baths tummy massages different burp techniques. Using tomee tipee anti colic bottles should I look into changing them? She’s tried kendamil and cow and gate.. midwife did a video call with me as I rang in and said to just keep doing what we’re doing but it’s so hard seeing my baby in pain with tears. Any advice would be much appreciated!! Also would waking her in the day help her sleep better ?

Try hipp organic and also the tommiee tippie advanced anti colic bottles. Also sounds strange but baby massage with natural oils I found helped.

Hope you find some relief and little one is not in pain for much longer.

Infacol worked for us when her colics were pretty bad. She had since learned how to burp on her own. 🥰

Thank you both x

I’m going through something similar, she’s amazing during the day but for 3 hours in the night she’ll cry. I suspect silent reflux combined with witching hour. Have you noticed any other symptoms? My LO has spit bubbles in her mouth, will spit up her milk if not held for ATLEAST 20 mins after a feed, coughing while feeding etc. look up silent reflux symptoms on TikTok there’s a lot more to silent reflux than just spit up. I doubt she’s colic otherwise she would be inconsolable for longer than 2 hours

My health visitor just recommend switching to cow and gate comfort as she’s showing signs of cmpa x

My little boy was the same, we use Kendamil colic milk and since switching it had been a life saver. I usually give him 2 squirts of infacol around 3 then at 5 and have noticed a big difference he’s not screaming and has been settled the last few nights since doing this. X

I am going through exactly the same thing and it’s heart breaking watching my baby cry out in so much pain! We thought that she was taking in too much air during breastfeeding as her latch wasn’t very good so yesterday we went and had her tongue tie cut but last night she cried for 3 hours straight and was inconsolable. The doctor who cut her tongue tie suggested going to a chiropractor which I am happy to do if it works but I feel like all I do currently is search the internet for anything that may help her.
I’ve heard such mixed reviews about Infacol but again, I would give it a go if I knew it would help.

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

My boyfriend booked a trip for us to go to mexico for a week as my push present. I have severe anxiety leaving my 7 month old with my mom. I know she will be in good hands but she’s exclusively breast fed for the most part but accepts bottles just fine. i have all my pumping parts packed and will pump when baby normally eats but i don’t want baby to forget me or have latch issues when i return!! any mommas ever experience this?

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

When did you circumcise your baby?
If you DID NOT or DO NOT have a circumcised son DO NOT comment this post is not for you!

Did you wait a certain amount of time or have it done immediately?
Again respectfully, this is only for the parents who choose to do so.
opinions about how not necessary it is will not be appropriate for this post. Thank you in advance. 🩵
