Colief?

[Bumblicous]

Anyone using Colief whilst BF? Just wondered how you are giving it ...... My lg is now 7 weeks and BF ... I haven't expressed yet and tbh not sure if I really want to! She a very hungry baby and would find it hard to find a gap in between feeds to express and not convinced I would get much out!

I shuv the tip into the corner of oscars mouth mid feed and give him 1 quick squeeze which I have taken upon myself to decide is 4 drops!

Saves pissing about expressing spoonfuls and feeding that way!

Thanks Bex I was thinking something along these lines too! Have you found the Colief actually makes a difference at all? Suze

Yea it does- he's in less pain and doesn't pull his knees up as much - it's expensive but worth it

I couldn't tell when he hadn't had it last week - however now he's got bad reflux everything is masked as the pains he has from that confuse me - poor baby!

Have you tried gripe water? X

 

[Bumblicous]

Yeah have tried infacol and gripe water - not made a difference. And I think the gripe water makes her sick x

When I burp little one nothing comes up it did with my BF babies.... Midwife said some BF babies don't need burping though sometimes he has that windy look/smile ... Should I be using something like the above to help release down wind??
