Is he winding ok? My bubba gets agitated if he struggles to bring enough wind up after feeds, even though I find him a few times each feed to make it easier for him

He is bringing up wind but last night it was the other end - he settled (after a poop) but that was after a bath and infacol before his next feed. He has been absolutely fine until the last few days. Wasn't sure if this was the start of colic?

Doesn't sound like it as such. James strains a lot and can be quite unsettled before a poop and sometimes can go quite a while before he goes. We started using infacol about a week and a half ago before each feed and he has improved massively. So using it every other feed now. A baby with colic normally screams a lot and is unsettled most of the time x

Thanks, the poor wee guy was in a lot of pain before he pooped. My nephew had colic and he screamed after every feed, my sister was at her wits end with it so thought it might be the start of it. Xx

Aw bless your nephew. Yh just keep an eye out for it worsening but try not to worry just yet :-) x
