Hi Moms,

Having been facing a slight problem. My 6 week old son is cranky at non specific times. So colic is ruled out. He is cranky especially when I breast feed him. He latches and unlatches and cries uncontrollably. I have tried Zantac on the ped's advice, but no relief. I bottle feed him twice a day and he roughly takes about 4-6 ounces of formula in a day (both feeds included). When he is on bottle he drinks continuosly till he finishes a substantial part of it, where as when on breast he either cries loudly or sleeps in 5 minutes.

I had not bottle fed my daughter, so am keen on keeping the bottle for my son.

What could be the problem. I am trying hard to listen to the cries to see if it is a cry of pain, or boredom etc. I cannot makeout. I burp him regularly. I am really exhausted.

Pls give me some tips.

Also give me the best breast pump details in terms of cost, hygeine, convenience etc.

Waiting eagerly for your responses.
