So more and more lately LeeAnne has been acting up after feeds! She has her bottle and then I burp her for about 1/2 an hour as she's not the easiest to burp but for about 2 hours after her feed she is just NOT happy at all! Cries and screams and won't stop moving, just constantly fussing and moving around. You can tell something is really bothering her! I've been using the Gripe water and it works well, keeps her settled for abit but obviously I can only use this 4 times a day and it doesn't seem to keep her settled for long! Could this be part of collic? I'm not really sure!
 
Hi Ya. She could be suffering from wind. We used Infacol on Toby and we found this helped a lot when he was LeeAnnes age as he would take forever to burp and we quite uncomfy. He didnt used to cry etc but he was generally unsettled. We also found that when he was little burping him halfway through his bottle helped, then once he had burped we would give him the rest of the bottle and then wind him again. You could maybe give that a try? Hope u found something that helps soon. I love the pic she is gorgeous x
 
I have the same problem with little Benjamin - takes forever to burp then is still unsettled ...going to start trying infacol / gripe water to see if it changes.

Particularly annoying at night when all you want them to do is burp and fall asleep so you can put them back down!!
 
I give her an oz and then burp her and go back to feeding and repeat. It seems as tho the gripe water does work but its just temporary and because you can only use it 4 times a day I can't give it to her after every feeding.
She woke up at 7:30am for a feeding and JUST went down now and it's 10am, the whole time all she did was cry and cry and cry no matter how much I burped her..its sooo frustrating! I was soooo tired last night I just wanted to burp her and put her down so I could sleep but NOPE she decided it would be fun to stay up from 3-7!
