?Trapped wind?

My baby is just over 2 weeks old and at about 3am he starts to grunt, wriggle, go red and looks as though he’s trying to pass wind. This is only when he’s flat in his moses basket, when I hold him upright he’s absolutely fine. I’ve tried winding him, massages etc, all the normal things and nothing is really working. Does anyone have any advice on what I could do? It doesn’t happen during the day and is always roughly the same time at night. It usually lasts like 6hrs until he settles back down again and by that point he’s exhausted😢 I’d be so grateful for any advice x

I could have literally wrote this about my little boy to a T. My health visitor said to try comfort milk but I’m yet to try this as my local supermarkets didn’t have any in xx

I found the peddle excerises helped with trapped wind nicely with my 1st

Have you tried infacol? Worked well with my first. When he was so little he would only sleep on me upright, wasn’t great for my sleep but at-least we got a bit of rest bite. Also could be reflux, but he’s so little may be best to give it time x
