Screaming through bottle fixed!!

I thought we would post this information for others.  For the past 2 weeks we have had twin B (larger twin) scream through her bottles.  Twin A (smaller twin) has been just fine, a great eater.  We had no idea why she was so upset, tried gas drops (they helped a bit), gripe water (didn't help much), changed her more often, different sitting positions when eating, sitting in steam, etc, nothing helped.  She would start to eat and just scream and scream.

 Fast forward to last night, and I had a thought.  She was struggling to eat while screaming again, and we had switched from Born Free glass bottle with breastmilk to a dr browns glass bottle with similac sensitive with no change.  So I ran to the nursery and grabbed a stage 2 nipple medium flow.... OUR PROBLEM IS FIXED!

 She is eating like a champ, no more gas (burping normally), and is a HAPPY BABY!  She doesn't fuss and has eaten several bottles with no problems!  Hope this helps!

  • Thanks for posting this! Our DD has been fussing through her feeding lately... What did yours look like? Just screaming?  DD fusses and cries and strains like she's trying to poop at almost every feeding.  She does seem pretty gassy, though better since switching formulas.  I wonder if we should try this...
