My 5 day old is getting very upset stomachs, she is breast fed, I’ve read that maybe my let down is too forceful for her? Any tips or help on this? My tiny baby just screams and her tummy bubbles and I hate seeing her in pain.
@paislees_momma, If you see that her tummy continues to bother her and nothing helps you can try eliminating dairy, as a lot of women do. See how she does and kind of go off by that. That irritates some babies tummies and of coarse high fiber foods like broccoli. If it persists I suggest you let her pediatrician know. My daughter would get colicky so they told me to try bicycles to let her release her gasses.
Also for you let down try to lay down when your let down happens so it won't be as forceful
I stopped Dairy when I was breastfeeding and watch your greens. That can definitely make her gassy
@emily_02, off hand, would you know what foods I should stay away from, or would that be all be up to her little body?
And burp often! That will help
