Title: my baby has gas... poor baby
Post by: Valerie1979 on October 24, 2011, 12:38:15 pm
my poor baby suffers from severe gas - he is 1 month old and gets lot of pain and then passes his gas and feels better but it returns often.
I have tired the gas drops now and adjusting diet, etc..... I hope it helps him.

any advice from mom's out there in FC world?

If he's formula fed he might have a problem digesting the liquid. We had the same problem. Try a gentle formula. It might be easier on his tummy. It also might just be a phase he's going through and he'll outgrow it. Good luck!

something I always used for my fivekids and even use now for my grandbaby is peppermint water. just get some of the round peppermint candies and put one in some warm water and let it dissovle then give it to your baby in a bottle. give this a try and let me know how if it helps.  :)

I'm a mother of eight, and I understand how trying it can be when your baby has gas. Well from experience I use something called gripe water and it works. You can pick up a bottle from CVS, goodluck...
