My baby is gassy and fussy all the time. Kindly help me.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

I think, you just have to make sure proper time duration, and frequency of feeding. Make sure the baby is breastfed on one breast completely and then attached to another breast (frequently changing one breast to another breast or inadequate feeding to one breast can lead to loose motion and gas). Keep a gap of two to three hours between the feed (frequent feeding can lead to indigestion, overfeeding, and a lot of gas). Increase burping duration to 10 to 15 minutes or more. A decrease in burping duration can lead to nose block, which can lead to breathing difficulty and noisy breathing. For nose block, you can put Nasoclear drops in each nostril, one to two drops. Whenever nose block is there, especially at night. Never breastfeed or feed in sleep or lying down position. If the baby cries excessively in the night (evening colic), you can give Colicaid drop one or two times, especially at night. Make sure the feeding position is proper, so that baby should not take in a lot of air during breastfeeding. Take the help of online video resources on breastfeeding positions. If you follow the above-mentioned options, I am sure the baby will be alright. No, Bonnisan is not advisable. Review after two days.

I hope I have answered your question.

I understand your concern.

Do not worry about stools. A baby may not pass stool for two to three days. How is his feeding now? If he is adequately breastfed there should not be a worry. Pus cell without fever is not of much concern. I would like to know if the urine culture report if it has been done. Stop Enterogermina, and it is not required. Do you have any blood tests? Overt medication can complicate things. Continue to breastfeed as advised. If the baby is feeding well, has no abdominal distention, and passes adequate urine, then there is nothing to worry about. Look for perianal excoriation (redness), and sometimes, it can be very painful, which can cause disturbed sleep and irritability. If there is a fever, the baby is not tolerating feed, or passing red-colored stool, show to his doctor. We need to reevaluate for an intestinal problem. Do not be stressed out about constipation if the abdomen is soft. The baby may not pass stool for two to three days or more. Whenever you feel tense, your milk output can go down, which again irritates the baby not having adequate milk. So, never get tense. Whenever you feel uncomfortable regarding the baby's condition, show it to the doctor so that you are comfortable. I would like to get an update.

I hope I have answered your question.

Yes, it is fine. Specifically in the nights, so that his sleep does not get disturbed. I will say, do not make it a routine. No need to give up in the daytime.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I have gone through the report (attachment removed to protect patient identity). Not much of concern. Is the baby fed with cow milk? Occult blood can be positive. Yes, you can wait for two to three days. Follow what I had advice. Let us review it after two days. If really a concern anytime, show it to the doctor.
