Baby GAS...the painful reality!
Ok, so here's the deal, in the past month baby gas has taken over and made the half hour after eating pretty miserable for little Elise. After her feedings, she tightens her body, pulls her legs up to her torso and cries in pain. It's awful to see her so uncomfortable and also so helpless in attaining relief. We burp her, pump her legs, pat her back and often even give her mylecon drops and while this all helps a bit it is still ever-present. I have changed my diet multiple times, to see if I can make things better for Elise, but all to no avail. We've accepted that her body will need to gradually adjust, but in the meantime GAS has temporarily become a four letter word!
