Baby noises

he could be super gassy, try a gas medicine before bed, or reflux.. try putting alittle cereal in his milk before bed, or try a soy formula or try to cut out dairy in your diet if you breastfeed see if that helps at all, or prop him up alittle using a boppy pillow or whatever you feel comfortable with mama 🫶 hope this helps

@Ava Im currently putting thickener in his milk which is helping to some degree and have changed him to goat milk which has made some difference, I’ve also inclined his next to me too…. Just not sure what else to do as drs said it’s normal😫xx

My son did this grunting until he was maybe around 12 weeks old. I was told that babies do this when they are trying to learn to poop and I think it was true for my son bc he would do it until he pooped but I don’t think he was actually constipated. It’s very common if you google why your baby may be making grunting sounds. You can try doing to I love you massage, bicycling his legs or pushing them to his chest and rocking him side to side, massaging his back to try to help him release gas and poop as well

@Carmen thank you!! Its sometimes after feeding and always on a night without fail, he isn’t sick, doesn’t struggle with burps so think it’s just normal for him now x

You’re welcome! We laugh now about how he sounded like a Billy goat 😂 but I was so stressed when it was happening and it was mostly at night for him too

@Grace Tudor trust your gut mama if you think it’s something talk to a new doctor! better safe then sorry

this is what my baby does before bed… he mumbles to himself before bed like a little song lol once he stops ik he’s sleeping 🤣 he’s 4 months old

@Ava my 1 year old also does this and has done it for as long as I remember 🥰 we call it his tired noise and know it won’t be long before he’s asleep!

it’s just baby noises nothing to worry about i don’t think x

what kind of noise is it?

@Sophie it’s like he’s clearing his throat

@Grace Tudor like a cough or like gurgling sort of noise? cos if it’s gurgling it could be reflux. my little girl had it bad. she was put on reflux milk and omomprozole and i’ve had her next to me tilted. i’ve now weaned her back to normal milk and she’s still on omoprozole, they said they grow out of reflux at 4/5 months x

@Sophie yeah it’s like a gurgle, I do think he’s got silent reflux I’m currently trialing carobel as don’t want him to be constipated xx

Babies are very noisy sleepers. It sounds like you’re on top of it and managing the reflux.
