Help! i have a sneaking suspicion that my infant is exceptionally gasy?
Answers: My 10 month old son be diagnosed quite precipitate on with reflux,and be perscribed Prevacid. He would often cry after burping and be very spitty, so adjectives the stomach acids were coming up and bothering him. Between the Prevacid and the Dr. Brown's bottles. his reflux be helped, and also his gassyness.
Mylicon drops would work I don`t know 20% of the time... we usually ended up putting him tummy down on our knees and pat his butt and back, or on his fund to pedal his legs like he be riding a bike. Both would put pressure on his tummy and would help work the gas out.
You might also want to ask your peditrician in the order of plain, regular strength Mylanta.. we could give him 1/2 a teaspoon and it would sustain with the gas and sooth his stomach.
Mylicon is secure to give up to 12 times a morning, as the human body does not absorb simethicone, the live ingredient. So give him the drops whenever he requirements them.
Has your pediatrician ruled out colic?
Good luck.
Well, i never tried it, but my friend suggested OVAL. It worked for her. I never tried it cause my daughter wasn't really gassy.
Hi, my daughter is 3 weeks prehistoric and i have a similar problem. She get really bad weave of a night time singular. Its sooo stressful. I dont have any direction for you but. I just required to let you know your not alone. Good luck!
lay babe-in-arms on their back and pump their legs similar to riding a bicycle. This gets things moving and gas to be released. Baby seem uncomfortable. Hopefully the Dr will own more for you tomorrow.
Have you tried regular baby gas drops from the pharmacy? Try lay him on his back and bending his knees to his chest and calmly moving his legs in a circular motion. Most babies can control the gas after a few months. but definately discuss to his doctor. Good luck in this stage
You didn't mention whether you are breastfeeding or not. If you are, my suggestion would be to hold a journal of what you eat- and when he get really gassy. That way you can wipe out foods that tend to make him gassy. I enjoy six children and I've always found apples, applejuice, onions, garlic, tomatoes, broccoli, and beans motivation babies to be really gassy. La Leche League could help beside this. I have also read roughly speaking a tea called "mother's milk tea" person good for milk supply and the anise helping baby's digestion. Google it.
If you are bottle feed, perhaps your kid is not tolerating the formula you are feeding him?
my infant was gasy too what we did be get a pillow and lay it accros your legs and lay the newborn accross them bounce slowly and rub lower back (also comfort put gasy baby to sleep) if that do not work try lying on vertebrae push lightly on tommy to see if still unyielding (happen when they gasy) then move their leg close to a bike good luck
My boy started getting gassy around like peas in a pod age. I've tried oval but didn'twork for us. Prevacid is a much stronger drug and I personally would avoid innards the prescription until you've tried everything.
I ended up birping him every 3 or so minutes during a nurture. Then at the end or after a feed if he still seemed gassy, we will pace around with him on our hip, facing out, near your forearm against his stomach. He does have really appropriate head control, though, so it wasn't difficult to do that. We still wander around with him approaching that when he fusses. He usually lets out a huge belch inwardly 5-10 minutes then he's smiling as a clam. None of the other positions mentioned by others worked for us, but this did.
Gripe water works for my son
