Baby grunting after eating

wandsandwine · August 2014

Jack is a great sleeper and eater until 2am hits. After that whether given formula or bf he will grunt and moan and toss and turn (as much as a 3 week old can). He's so loud but manages to sleep through it. We have tried burping and gripe water but nothing really helps. Anyone else going through this?

I think newborns are just loud sleepers... my LO grunts, squeaks, squaks while sleeping.

Yup my LO does that too. Keeps us awake at night a lot. It helps if we keep him up an angle, or in his swing

Mine is a grunter but it doesn't start until he starts thinking about being hungry. He grunts while eating too but not after. He's too busy spitting up apparently.

Ditto what others said, if he were hurting he'd definitely let you know. Newborns are often just sort of loud sleepers....

Yep I have a major grunter here!

Another grunter here! My husband asked when it stops...I don't remember, anyone know? I only remember it in the early days though.

Ds is another big grunter, all day, but especially after his last night feeding. I asked the pedi about it today and he was not concerned. Maybe gas or a little reflux, but not a big deal at this point. The grunting is pretty funny. We get some looks when he does it in public :-)
