Unsettled baby past few days

Hello Messaging as little one is officially 11 weeks old…exclusively breastfed …has been unsettled past few days. Was feeding really well as usual but seems unsettled. Gaggs on the boob but then hear tummy gurgling aswell… He does take ages to burp or wind which can en rough at night…and his sleep is poor too He’s also been having 2 mustard runny poos nearly daily or every other day….should I be worried? He’s also got dry patches all over his body which I’m trying to resolve….moisturise with cocunut oil and recently resorted to skin salvation balm by balmonds… Unsure if he’s coming down with something very strange quite a few things going on :(

He is probably going through a fussy stage related to a development leap, we are 11.5 weeks over here and just coming out of a fussy spot and now acquired new skills.. I recommend the app The Wonder Weeks to track developmental stuff! The poop sounds perfectly normal to me.

Sound exactly like my 12 week old - so fussy on the boob for just over a week, feeding led regularly and crying so much when hungry but refusing to latch for ages - google the 3 month breastfeeding crisis, it’s pretty common at this age and just have to ride it out. As above, there’s also a development leap at this age where a lot changes which can also throw their normal behaviour/feeding and sleeping pattern off and make them more fussy. Just hang in there as it will pass - things are much better for us the past couple of days and she’s back to her normal self now xx

Thank you for replies I will look it up Sophie about breastfeeding crisis as it’s horrible and disheartening! Also an update he has a horrible chesty cough he’s picked it up from his older brother (3 and half year old)….happy holidays 🫣

@Katie I have the app thank you! Just looking over it think it says in a weeks type he’s entering developmental leap 3 😣
