First time I’m posting a pic of me and my Bubba Tayif on here. Recently he has been so unsettled crying with tummy pain. It’s breaking my heart! I’ve tried everything infacol, gripe water, tummy massage, leg exercises but nothing seems to work. What else can I do?

Is he not bringing his wind up or is he constipated?

@abbyrose, I guess he is quite windy he doesn’t purp a lot but he does fart when do the leg exercises.

Try colief that's for wind it's good, is he constipated?

Have you tried cooled boiled water between feeds? Will help if he's constipated x

@abbyrose, ok thanks will give it a go. I’m not sure if he is constipated as he poops 2 to 3 times a day and the colour is yellowy mustard and texture is soft.

@emilyjayne27, no I haven’t what do I need to do? Give him cooled boiled water before every feed?
Abby Rose⚘·
@sumaya.wahed oh okay no I wouldn't say his constipated. Try colief then
Sumaya·
@abbyrose, thanks Hun. He does grunt and strain when he poos though. I think he is just really gassy.

@sumaya.wahed yeah honestly doesn't sound constipated my daughter goes 3/4 days without going. Try the colief and carry on with what your doing

@abbyrose, Just googled colief it says to add it to breast milk or formula milk. I breastfeed exclusively do you think it would be ok if I just give it to him before a feed?
Abby Rose⚘·
@sumaya.wahed I just had a look on Google and it says to do it like this if you breastfeed as it works best with milk and doesn't work if given directly

If he's not constipated I wouldn't introduce water yet. The only thing I can suggest is keeping him upright during a feed and for at least 10 mins after and try lots of different positions to wind him x
