my now 7mth old son had colic & was the same- constantly unhappy .it may be colic or it could be many other things, colic/wind drops worked for him.get some from the chemist &give them a try, they wont do him any harm even if it is not what is the problem, but they could be the answer to your prayers.is he on lactose free milk due to allergy or medical advise? if not maybe a good idea to get a prof opinion as to which formula is most suitable?

it could be i explain what iv done with my lad hes now just over 4 months. i started him on breast milk (expressed)that did him for 4 weeks then i put him on Farly's 2ND milk for hungry babies that did his hunger good then found he was crying trapped wind as my other 2 lads had the same i found infacol was good 2 dropper fulls i pop in his bottle shake and serve burp him ever 2 oz and hes got no complains hope this helps a bit u can buy infacol at tescos and most other superstores or local chemist and its not too dear hope this helps u out all the best if that fails i think by 3 months old u can give them a 5 ml of grip water its very good stuff too.

hi chloe how come he is on lactose free?? colic is a wind problem have you tried any colic relief medicine from your chemist? there is one available called "infants friend" made from all natural ingredients i like this one it works on my 3 month old daughter who has colic and reflux diagnosed by my local GP there is also gripe water which is similar. there are so many different reasons that your baby boy maybe unsettled email me if you want more advice

if he is gripping i.e pulling his legs up and seems to calm down when he is laid on his belly or u put pressure on his belly then i wud say he has, make sure u bring all the wind up after and in midlle of a bottle, aired water b4 a bottle is good as it helps them.

yes he surely seems to be colicky. you may change the formula but ask the pediatrician first, it usually lasts 3 month and then goes, you may try baby's magic tea for it if you can find it, really helping especially for babies tummy.

if it is colic you can get a syrup for it, you only give them a drop and it makes them burp really loud, i forget what it's called now.
