Baby got gas!
Hi Ladies
DD is now 5 months old and is a good sleeper except when she is gassy and that is usually in the night. She is on S26-HA formula which agrees with her (have tried several). She commenced solids a few weeks ago and we are keeping these to organic cereal and fruit and veg that are easy to digest as she has silent reflux but is medicated.
In observing DD's sleeping pattern at night, she generally only wakes when she is trying to get her gas out. She swings her legs in all directions and manages to come out of her swaddle. She is still swaddled (have tried sleeping bags, no sleeping bags but she wakes easily without the swaddle). When she wakes at night, usually we pick her up, put some pressure on her tummy and once the gas is out, she settles back to sleep quite easily. I am convinced she would be able to do a full night sleep if it wasn't for her discomfort.
Doctors have suggested Infacol and Pediacol both of which haven't been much help. I have also tried giving her baby camomille tea.
I guess her digestive system will develop over time but if anyone has any useful suggestions out there then I'd be interested in reading about them. She is also on Losec which can cause gas but has been on it for over 10 weeks so I am assuming Losec related symptoms have now settled.
many thanks
