Hi ladies,
So my daughter is 16weeks the first 1-2months where hell on earth, she did nothing but scream. I believe she suffered with colic & reflux. We where prescribed infant gaviscone & I also used colic carm(homeopathic). Not sure how effective it was as silly as it sounds my weeks days month have turned into one big blurr.
Well I've had a month of a really nice pleasant baby but these past 2 weeks have become he'll again. She isn't taking her feeds the same & is bairly taking on 25oz in 24hours. There is no routine to her feeding I just keep making up bottles & trying her ever few hours. where previously she was taking 5-6oz per feed ever 3-4 hours & 4-5 at night.
At bed time she just screams hysterically for an hour. When she finally settles she then wakes every 2 hours & every hour from 2/3am for 10mins to 40mins until she finally getting up for good between 6.30/7.30am. The 2/3am stretch in so hard she screams, I can tell she doesn't want to be awake as her eyes are barley open & she doesn't seem to want to eat either.
I just don't know what to do I am even considering introducing baby rice in the morning as I've heard this can help with reflux/colic babies. I know these days people don't like babies to be weaned until 6months but she seams in so much pain through the night & when I am trying to feed her in the day
