She's three months old, it's been really bad for about six weeks.
NP. Any chance this is reflux?
No, almost no spit up and I've had a reflux baby. It's definitely worse at night.
There's silent reflux. Most definitely could be that.
My child had colic but no reflux. I don't think doctors will do anything if the baby isn't spitting up and is eating well and gaining weight. Colic by itself is a thing. That said, if you are breastfeeding you could cut down on gas producing foods (brussels sprouts and stuff like that) or if you are doing a combo of formula feeding/breastfeeding you could always cut-down on any foods and also change the formula to see if that has a positive effect.
I was the person who said my first had colic for six months and wrote this. DD’s pediatrician advised this. I had no idea it wasn’t true. I have felt guilty about her colic for years. This makes me feel a lot better.
Breast milk is not made from your stomach contents, it’s made from your blood. All the stuff about don’t eat broccoli/Brussels sprouts so your baby won’t be gassy are old wives tales.
