Help please with bottom wind!
Hi girls
Hope your all having a nice evening. Im hoping you can help me please. Emily is suffering really badly from bottom wind or lack of it maybe is the right way to put it! she really struggles and strains alot of the time and it makes her cry in short sharp bursts and im pretty sure shes straining to push out a poo! shes not at all constipated as poos lots but shes always in pain - its much worse in the evenings and at night. Shes already on infacol as did have bad wind from her tummy during and after feeding but that seems to be under control now. Can anyone suggest anything please to help - I hate seeing her in pain !

PS - she is 4 weeks old and it started about a week ago

How long has she been on infacol? It can take up to a week to build up. Or perhaps try gripe water which she is now old enough for. I swore by gripe water with my lo.

You could try a little cooled boiled water, not too much as it can fill up and then wouldn't want milk, but this can also help going a little easier
shes been on infacol for a week now and its def helped her wind from her tummy after feeding and burps alot better to get it out its just the other end now a problem!
Can they have gripe water aswell as infacol or is it one or the other please?
