What causes gas in a BF baby?

I BF my LO and in the past 2-3 days he has started having gas problems, which have gotten progressly worse until today he basiclly won't stop crying. I haven't changed my diet or eaten anything new, so why this sudden change?!

Re: What causes gas in a BF baby?

  • DS randomly got gas and diarrhea too and he is 7.5 months old! His pedi told me to cut dairy because some babies can have a late reaction to dairy in your diet... I cut dairy as of last thursayd and he is slowly getting  better

  • How old is LO?  Is there any change in his bowel movements?  My DS had gas problems when he was little, maybe 4 mos i cant remember for sure... anyway i checked with the Pedi and we used the drops to help... didn't have to use them very often as i recall... but it depends how old, whether its ok.  I'd call the Pedi and ask.  I know it can be so frustrating... try to remind yourself it will pass, and your LO may not be able to say it buy he thanks you for your love and comfort even when he still doesn't feel good!  :)  Someone said that to us and i'll never forget it... it helped me through when all i wanted to do was cry too!
  • He's 12 weeks and yes, in the past few days he has only done 1-2 BM versus 3-4 he normally does.
