Unwell after feeds or is this colic?

Hey everyone, my 7 week old has always had issues with feeding as he was tongue tied and we had it released about 2 weeks ago now. So he has always been a very sicky baby and always suffered with acid reflux and being bloated etc. however, now every afternoon from 3ish until really late at night (once he starts to have bottles with formula) he will just scream and scream and only will settle with me. This week in particular he has been very sick and does have a cold by looks of it. Anyone else experienced this after bottle feeds or is it just me?

😢 hard to see your baby in pain. Is bubs constipated ? Maybe A little bit of Gripe water might help, I would mix a little bit into my babies bottle whenever they needed help if they got constipated, bloated or a little bit of warm water. Sending 🙏🏽 to you & your baby 💟

Hi Phyllis we have been using gripe water for a week now does help and he has an explosion nappy every night. I didn’t know you could mix it in their bottle though! I’ve been using a bottle to give it to him! So if you can mix it that’s good to know xx

Mine was exactly the same! I give infacol before bottle and it works wonders - like a different baby now!

Sounds like cmpa to me, both my children had it and screamed 95% of the day until all cows milk was removed. Colic and reflux symptoms went over night and stopped throwing up x

Thank you guys! I’ve tried inficol when he was first born sadly did not work for him. I had wondered about CMPA as we been using cow and gate which contains cows milk protein xx

@lauren that’s what we were using before being diagnosed - you want to ask the doctor for ‘pepti 1’ or something similar - it’s a very thin milk so you may still experience throwing up, but you can get a thickener from the doctor too x

Thank you so much Danielle xxx
