    aww kindof- (((hugs)))

    what things have you been doing to help??
    maybe he has colic??

    actually now that i think of it... my cousins little boy was a bit like that and they tried soya baby milk and worked for them. ('they' do say only switch to this if mw/gp advises)

    dont use soya!!! it produces hormones in babies that can make them infertile and grow breasts!!!

    Thanks Jillie, well so far we've tried Infacol, then we tried warming his milk (cos he had it room temp) and now we are on the grips juice

    I am going to boots tomorrow to get some anti colic plus bottles (with the tube in them) and if that doesnt work I am going to try the comfort milk

    ETA I do think he has colic, what the bounty book describes as colic certainly seems like what he has

    Well mine are all fine... I think this would need researching further.

    Isn't there an aptimil which is partially broken down proteins you can buy over the counter anyway? There are also others available on prescription only if there is a big problem.

    I think the baby milks are fine so long as GP/midwife is supervising Caz :)

    Anyway, the monster refuses to go to bed without company so I am off there. Goodnight, lovelies.
