Hey guys any tips for a 4 almost 5 month old on how to help with gas and constipation? Ive done gripe water gas drops and glycerin suppository its helped some but hes still crying do I just let him cry? Obviously ive been bouncing him and rocking him but hes still crying and seems extremely uncomfortable is there anything else I can do?
Thank you guys I appreciate all the help, I use the Dr. Brown bottles just switched to them noticed a major difference in his burping might change formula if he seems to keep getting constipated....I was giving him a probiotic which helped a lot but my Wal-Mart sucks and doesnt always have it so I think that is what caused this bout of constipation was cause he hasnt had any probiotics for a few days....might just wind up ordering it online (small town mostly old people so they don't carry much babywise)
Bicycle movements if all else fails use a themometer put a little vaseline on the tip insert just the tip into the LOs butt he will go shortly after I had to do it with my 11 week old today...
I swear by dr brown bottles. If you go to babies r us you can score some Easter ones like dirt cheap (I actually like the chick patterns on them). If he’s breastfeeding, check your diet. Something you could be eating can be causing him gas
Finally got him settled down I did a warm compress on his belly which helped and then gave him a calming tablet as he had been crying for longer than I was comfortable with and that settled him right down he is now asleep peacefully
