Gassy Baby

My son is 2 months old now. For the past month he has been having a lot of gassy pain and I feel so bad that I can only do so much to help him feel more comfortable. I know it's normal for babies to experience gas as their digestive system is still immature but I wanted to ask for advice on how to help him get relief and prevent it from getting so bad. I have tried massaging his tummy, bicycle legs, Kolik Drops, etc. I'm combination feeding him breastmilk and Similac Formula as my supply isnt the greatest. I'm not sure if it's this formula that is upsetting his tummy and maybe I should try a different kind.

  • Have you tried mylicon drops or the Frida baby windii? The windii saved us with our very gassy son!

  • Thank you for these suggestions! I'll definitely check them out :)
  • We recently switched to Enfamil gentle tummy formula and that has helped so much with the immense gas pains our little guy was having!
  • Love the windi! Saved my life. Also little remedies gas drops.
  • Yes to the windi gas
    Seems so weird to do but it works! Tried it this morning for the first time 
  • You're doing great in trying various methods to help your baby with gas pain! Consider using a probiotic designed for infants, which may help improve their gut health. Consult your pediatrician before starting any supplements. Every baby is unique, so finding what works best for your son might take trial and error. Keep monitoring his symptoms; if they persist or worsen, don't hesitate to contact your pediatrician for further guidance.

  • I’m going through the exact same thing my baby is grunting and straining to poop and her tummy is super bloated I bought mylicom drops it doesn’t seem to help. But just wanted to let u know u aren’t alone in this 😭
  • Same here! Done it all and also exhausted! Gentlease formula worked for my first but we’re trying Nutramigen for our second.
  • Same here! Little one just cried in pain for the first 8 weeks. Tried the windi but didn’t seem to help.had to switch formula— enfamil neuro pro gentlease. Has held a lot! I also add a few gas drops in every bottle
