Just a thought:
my son was like that, he cried constantly and I was told he was "colicky". Well I refused to take that for an answer and I dug deaper. Turned out he had acid reflux which was burning his esophogus, and was intolerant to milk and soy protein, which was giving him stomach aches. It had nothing to do with gas. I switched him to a hypoallergenic formula called neocate and once he was on meds for his reflux he is now 100% better.

They told me that too she is just colicky. But than she got bad diarrhea and they kept telling me for the past 3 weeks its ok babies go through that than she got a bad diaper rash that blistered up. So I went and seen another dr and she switched her formula to alimentum .Day after she started it she dont cry that much at all

Its called .Nutramigen.... I think shes allergic to soy too so thats my next alternative.

Natalia is right about one thing too many dr dismiss crying infants as being colicky when in reality is actually acid reflux. Alot of people suffer from it and dont know that they do sometimes.

Another thing is babies really like to be bundled the first few weeks, came never slept in his bassinet or crib but we got him to sleep in the playpen>corner.

Similac made my cousin's son spit up eeeeeverytime he ate, &he was so gassy that it was incredibly painful for him. She switched to the generic brand of enfamil at walmart &she said it was amazing &that she never had any problems with him after that.

Acid refulx for an infant must be horrific...Poor thing...I pay $32 for 12 cans that need equal part water .......And its one of the leats expensive....Im sorry but I would never use a generic brand of formula...


So can anyone tell me what spit up at every feeding means?

Alyvia spit up (actually, she projectile vomited) at almost every feeding for the first few weeks. My doc told me to burp her halfway through the feeding and again immediately after the feeding was done. She also told me to elevate the top half of her crib mattress by putting a rolled-up towel underneath it, or to let her sleep in her car seat.

She told me it was either air caught behind the milk (when she burped, it pushed the milk back up) or it was an immature... Umm... Whatever the opening to the stomach is called. I think that's what she said. She said one of the valves in there was probably still immature and kicking back some of her meal each feeding.

It passed after a few weeks, and now she only spits up a little bit. And usually that's our fault - tickling her tummy or "flying" her in the air too soon after mealtime.

Yeah the nurse at the hospital told me to put a phone book underneath the crib to elevate the mattress.......I just think my son eats too fast and I do burp him half way through and as well as after .....

There is a certain formula that .W.I.C does pick up, but you need a doctor's note for .W.I.C to approve it. You can't just go to the store and get it - the vouchers are very specific. It's hella expensive - not sure if it's the one .Sandy's talking about or not.

Wic overseas is the best, I get wic here and u can pretty much choose the formula for your child, the ones they offer at the commisary, we still can get juicy juice and cereeal and eggs, but here u get more options on that stuff wich is sooo awesome. Might just be certain states taht change stuff
