Potential colic or reflux?

My 11 week old is so unsettled every evening for hours. We finally get him settled for sleep but he always wakes up just crying.
He’s an angel in the morning. Settled,smiley,cooing and gets to sleep fairly easy.
We think he may have a bit of silent reflux.
He gulps a lot and when he does it finds it painful, a lot of excessive bubbly spit and bubbly sounds in his belly.
Anyone who has had a colic or reflux baby pls share your experience of evenings with them? What formula did you feed them to help relieve these symptoms?

My baby was the same! Just crying non stop for hours, bubbly spit and wake up every time I put her down when she was settle to sleep. When I changed her formula for anti reflux(cow&gate) which is much more thick she’s much better now!

My girl was the same reflux/colic symptoms are fairly similar so it’s hard to tell which is which, I tried infacol for a few weeks with no results so the gp prescribed carobel which has worked wonders , she still has some moments where she will scream for 30 mins or so in the evenings but nothing compared to the 3-4 hours of screaming she used too do because of reflux

Colostrum storing?

Has anyone successfully extracted colostrum before the baby’s born? Apparently it gets produced from 16w pregnant and you can start storing it in the freezer but I’m 34w looking at my nipples and the syringes on amazon wondering how it works?? Like what did you use and did it hurt? 🥲

Self settling

Any tips or advice of how to teach 6.5month old to self settle? I’m up multiple times in the night to cuddle her back to sleep and put the dummy in. I understand she will wake up and want a cuddle etc but any tips on self settling would be appreciated 🥰

Baby losing weight

Hi all, it's been a long time since I had a baby (my son is 15!). My daughter is 10 days old and was 9lb born, she has since lost weight at every appointment and is at a 12% loss. I am breast feeding every two hours for over an hour and topping her up every feed. I pump and can get 60ml in 10 minutes so I know my supply is okay. Anyone had this before? Can give me some tips? I currently feel like I'm letting my baby down.

Did I overreact?

I have had 3 c sections, recently had a wisdom teeth removal (4) to be exact and all my mom did was visit the day BEFORE and then she only sent 1 text. She has NEVER spent one full day with me and doesn’t acknowledge my achievements much. She just isn’t there when I need her to be. She claims she’s always working but she lives like 7 minutes away! she can come help with the kids so my husband can have break? we don’t ask her for much and she only sees the kids 1-2 a month. She also didn’t visit with my last c section. I told her that she should’ve gotten the abortion when she had the chance with me because why would you have me and neglect me emotionally? To not actually give me a present father in my life. I am very angry all she does is disappoint me. She only wants to show up for certain people in the family and I just want to grab her and shake her and ask her why can’t she be a good present mother?
