Reflux?

My LO is 11 weeks and for last few weeks cries/screams during feeds, but oddly is fine for night feeds. She seems comfortable lying on her back and is not unsettled other than during feeds. Could this be reflux? Trying to figure out what’s causing the unsettledness just during feeds.

Growth sprut? Mine is the same

Mine started doing this around 9 weeks (he’s nearly 11 at the moment). He started taking less oz, like only 2 or 3 at a time but was feeding every 2 ish hours. And he was so fussy almost like he was in pain but like you said was fine at night. He’s only just started taking 4oz again and takes bottle happily. So I guess it was a leap of a growth spurt or something.

Is this bottle feeding? Is it teat size? If you bottle feed, maybe the teat flow is too slow so they’re getting frustrated but the slow flow at night is good as they’re half asleep?

We have the exact same thing!!What size teat are you using? We upped him to 1 but now brought back down to a 0 as we thought if it was coming out too quickly it could be causing more air. We also started using infacol which has really helped get the wind out. Also done lots of playing on a play mat so he's scratched out and kicking to get some movement in his belly xx

@Paige she’s breastfed, I can’t figure out what it is because I think if it was reflux surely she would be also uncomfortable during the night feeds too? Very confusing. Hopefully can figure it out soon!!

@Lucy hope your little one feels better soon! I’m breastfeeding, I started using gaviscon yesterday to see if that helps but it doesn’t seem to be making a lot of difference so still trying to see what I can do to fix it, confused what it could be! Xx
