Hi All ,

I have a one month old baby . Sometimes after feed he doesnt burp and also spits up some milk after feed . Since two days he is crying a lot,he seems to be sleepy but doesnt sleep . He passes gas a lot too. I am planning to get non alchoholic gripe water for him . Hope this will relieve him .
Also can u all suggest me diet for breast feeding . What should we avoid eating and what all we should eat so that we have enough milk supply and also baby doesnt get gassy.

Thanks. Priya replied. Hi,

I have had the same problem with my baby when she was 3 weeks , she used to cry a lot esp in the late evenings. What worked for us is non alcholic grip water(woodwards) .even though it is not highly recommended by some doctors , using it on \";need basis\"; rather than a routine,when u see discomfort in the baby is ok. it definetly relieves the baby. I used a lota garlic in my food as well. I had to use the gripe water untill my baby was about 2 months old on need basis then she did not need it any more. meena subram replied. hi mommy,

of course, garlic increases the milk production and my mom also gave me after my delivery meenakshi subram replied. for first three months, u should not give gripe water thats what my doctor suggested to me and even my daughter had gas problem but only thing u can avoid gas by giving breastfeed within every 2hrs, now my baby doesn't have gas problem

diet for breastfeeding - don't have spicy food and coconut both gives indigestion problem Simmy replied. Hi Disha

Woodwords gripe water is good. You can give 5 ml thrice a day. If you are in US you will get Mylicon or Gerber Gas Relief over the counter which will solve the problem.

Please avoid onion garlic (spicy food) , cabbage cauliflower and beans, these things cause gases in infants. Spiting up milk is very common so do not worry much.


Hope this helps
