I don’t know what’s wrong with my baby

[Mamaaaa]

My baby is nearly 3months and recently as of last week Friday she cries non stop when you try put her on the boob, even when you manage to settle her the moment she smells it she yells as if she’s been hurt for non stop hours. And this goes on and on for up to 2 hours till she finally starts to fall asleep then you can only try give her the boob. I’ve tried infacol and gripe water it doesn’t help and now I’m not sure what to do. Or whether this is normal.

Anyone else go through any of this with their babies?

Please help

Is she having bottles as well or just boob? Or is she only taking boob when she's asleep?

There's is some great information here about babies who are struggling at the breast with some advice on what you can try.

Do you have any lactation consultants in your area? Our local children's centre has a mama's milk session once a month or or midwife unit has a breast feeding meeting weekly.

She takes the bottle when I express when I’m out but other than that no. My mum seems to think it’s colic but if it was I would think the gripe water would help. She has a good latch but I’ll defo look into one in my area. Thank you so much hun

hey yes, from 6-12 wks. There's a probiotic we were advised here in Spain called reuteri. Might be worth having a look. Obviously check first with your doctor.
