Inconsolable baby after feeding
Show your support
For my son this was CMPA. I had to formula feed as I suffer with an ED and couldn’t cut anymore food in my diet without harming myself. Look into it :) x
Colief drops also helped my son but that was for formula not sure how you would use them if BF x
@Gem yeah, she’s so distressed though it’s hard to do this properly as she’s so fidgety! It breaks my heart x
@Shannon she’s not being sick but is deffo having problems getting wind out x
@Shannon will look into it - thanks!
I used to find lifting both legs up at once to their stomach helped better than the bicycle legs
@Sophie my son started with just crying continously then the sickness came around 6 ish weeks old xx
@Gem thanks, i did this the other day and she did a couple of farts but it doesn’t always work!
@Shannon oh ok, I’ll keep an eye on her. I’ve done nondairy all day today so hopefully it’ll be out of my system in a few days.
Has anyone taken their baby to the doctors with this? I think I’ll get fobbed off but anything I can do to help her,I will! X
You can deffo take to doctor for this x
Have you checked if she has a tongue tie?
@Marilyn yeah she’s had it done x
Try a reflux bed In the end the dr gave my son Davison but we perseverd with the bed and lots of love x

My boy squeals horribly when he needs to burp. Lots of rocking after feeds helps, with him upright over one shoulder. Some days it takes longer than others. Try reaching out to a Lactation Consultant if it persists.
Try to do belly holds right after feeding. Your LO may have indigestion. That position helps them to burp or spit out if they need to. My baby loves that position. It helps her release gases as well because we apply pressure on their belly.
How is her latch? If a ‘lazy’ latch where her mouth isn’t properly open she might be taking in quite a lot of air which will give her tummy ache, mine used to get like this in the night when we’re both half asleep and it really is heartbreaking. I’d reach out to a breastfeeding clinic if your local area and see if they can help to check it’s not a simple fix x
Frida windi gasspasser works so well. It’s the only thing that helps actually !
Have you tried bicycle legs / burping?
