Trapped wind baby?

Brody has had terrible trapped wind which caused us to have 2 very rough nights with no sleep (day time seems manageable though!)

Anyway, for the past 2 days (and I will be continuing), I have been drinking a tea made from a mix of the following seeds:

aniseed
fennel
dill
fenugreek
caraway

They dispense the wind for your baby. Use them in equal portions and make a tea from them by adding them to hot water. You drink it, it goes through your breast milk, and your baby is less windy image as in no more trapped wind as they can get it out.

You can get these from Neals Yard, health food stores, or chinese herbal medicine shops.

This has been a godsend for us, so I thought Id share in case anyone else is experiencing this with their little one.
