Post COLIC??? WHATS WRONG.......

Hi this is my first time on this Childrens Board. I have a baby girl that 3.5 weeks and since week about 3 she cries and wails for a couple of hours for no reason. I think its gas b/c I can hear her gas in her stomach and she farts(excuse me) sometimes. I can tell she is uncomfortable but there are moments when she feels fine. She is only like this during the day and during the nites she sleeps pretty much 3-4 hours w/o waking. We went to the mall yesterday and soon as we got there she started crying a little and then more and then more and finally we had to leave b/c she was unconsolable. Does any one know what I am talking about? I just don't want her to be in any kind of pain b/c it would just kill me. How do you know? I went to the dx when this started and he thinks its lactose intolerance so we changed the formula to Enfamil-Lacto/Free with iron. It has helped a bit but she is still fussy.

Anyone with any answers please help me,
Thank you in advance,

Serena

My Dear Serena,

I have 6 children, And I do knw what you are talking about. 2 of my children were like that.

My son (who is now 12) could not drink anything but goats milk. We tried Everything, I mean Everything. Thankful now he can drink reg milk. But it might take time to figure out what she can handle. Until then, when she is like that, hold her in the football hold. With her belly on your forarm. This might help, plus you can lay her on her back and rotate her legs to her tummy to help get the gas out.
You will have to try diff things till you see what works for her.

There are also gas drops/ gas pills that works well, I started my babies on the when they where a month old. There are all diff kinds.

I just thought of something, it could also be the Iron. My 3 of mine could not take the iron.

I hope this helps, if you need anything just let me know, If I cant help, hopefully someone else will be able to help.

Take care and Deep breath
Chele'

Dear Chele,

Thanks so much for your words. I just had a mild breakdown just a few minutes ago. I just have to be patient and I think I may need to drop her off at daycare or with a family member for 1 or 2 days of the week before I go crazy.

Anyone else with any help?

Serena

Hi Serena,

I too went through the wailing from H E (double hockey sticks) for quite some time with my first born.
I was told to try Mylocin drops.
AHHHHHHHH!! what a relief
another suggestion which also helped my daughter during teething & then for my second child ( a boy) during "colicky" moments is a wonderful homeopathic pill called "Humphrey's."
I do wish you luck.
Being a Mom is hard enough.
Take care & know that you are not alone.

Catherine
