So you're breast feeding and formula feeding?? I think that's ok. I breastfed for about 2-3 weeks before stopping cause I just didn't have enough milk (my doc and I tried eevrything but I had a c-sec and it's harder after that) and my son was constantly hungry, he wasn't so gassy but pooped a lot, like 12 times a day. Now he is on similac and is fine, he still poops 1-3 times a day and his gas is better. I use the avent bottles which help reduce gas/colic (they're expensive but to me worth it). He's never been colicky thank god. Her e in canada we have something calle dgripe water which works wonders on gassy babies, but after talking to some friends ison't think you guys have it in the states. You guys have something called karo syrup which is supposed to be kind of the same. Get some of that and give it to her. Good luck.

How are u feeling? Things going better yet???

Hi

Yeah I know what you mean, my little girl was a gassy baby too, had mylocon drops are very good, but I bottled fed her, but I also was feeding her simulac with iron and I found out that was making her have terrible gas, so my doctor put her isomil, and the bloating and the gasses stoped. So if your little won is exsperiencing bad gas and your staying up with her, ask your doctor about changing formula. Hope ive helped congradualations on your new bundle of joy. From hotty :d
