I was waiting for them to get in touch but should ...

We have transitioned our little one on to cows’ milk in the last couple of weeks in place of his formula feeds (he still breastfeeds too).

Has anyone had any luck with kendamil comfort for a gassy baby?

I breastfeed my baby, she’s 2 weeks and I’ve noticed she’s been spitting up. However I don’t know what’s normal. I plan on calling my pediatrician first thing in the morning.
