Still having trouble with wind

Hi ladies,

we're still having a few problems with my wee mans sleep, and we're now pretty certain it's now just trapped wind bothering him (reflux is under control). I spend ages winding him, have a good big burp but it seems ages to get the final bit up, if we can at all.

He's had cranial so his diapharm is less tight and he should get his wind up easier, and is on rantitidine for reflux so no longer constipated like when he was on gaviscon. I'm still ebf and have no
latch problems to fix.

Anyone else still having wind problems? If not what have you used to get the wind up? As I'm ebf colief isn't a viable option for us I don't think and also wasn't sure whether I could use infacol or gripe water with rantitidine?

  • Hiy Hun> You can definitely use Gripe Water with Ranitidine, as I asked our Paediatrician if we can use it with George, so you are safe there. I do know that you cannot use Infacol when they are on Gaviscon (as the 2 act against each other). HTH

  • Harry is a nightmare to wind!!!! He's had cranial too which has meant he's gone from doing no burps to one after a feed but thats it! I can wind him for hours and he will not do more than one burp, but i know he has wind as he is blue around the mouth!
