My baby struggles to fart and poop. She looks so uncomfortable and tries to strain. I've tried infacol and dentanox. But no luck. I've tried massage, bicycle kicks and bathing but no luck. Only a few pumps. Anyone got any other tricks to try? Desperate tired mummy

Warm baths always helped my little one, it’s awful to see them that way. Thinking of you!

Google the colic hold for some pics, but basically: Lay the baby tummy-down along your forearm. Their head rests near your elbow crease, and their legs drape on either side of your hand. Use your hand to support their crotch or inner thighs and your other hand to pat their back.
The gentle pressure on my little one's belly seemed to help a lot ❤️

If she’s formula fed give her the ready made in a bottle instead of the powder once. Worked for mine every time

Gripe water did wonders for my little one who was in the same state

i gave my little one a few sips of water before her next bottle when she was really struggling to pass wind/ poo and she managed to have one later that day. It looked like it relieved her a lot. We had the same issue though where she looked in a lot of pain constantly straining x

How old is she?

Not sure if it’s available in GB but mylicon gas drops are a life saver. The effect was instantaneous!

Did you try the whole body wiggle method. I found bicycle legs did nothing but I saw a video where you gently wiggly their abdomen and did the tummy massage after. That moved a lot of wind
