So Gassy!!! What to do?

kinsleysmom · April 22nd, 2004, 05:13 PM

My 3 week old is so gassy!! I've tried switching her to soy formula, mylicon drops, Goodstart (that is what worked for my oldest).

Nothing helps!!! She screams about 30 minutes after eating and it is worse in the evening.

Any suggestions?

What about switching bottles and/or nipples? I formula fed my first and she was so gassy until I switched to the Dr. Brown's bottles. They made a huge difference (well that along with Soy formula)

HTH!

Kelli, you might try and placing her on belly down on a birthing ball and kind of gently rolling the ball back and forth while holding her steady. Sounds strange, but it's worked for some.
