The distressed crying sounds a lot like my son. The doc said he had some
reflux and suggested 1/2 tsp mylanta either before the nursing, or when this
happens.. it has calmed his nursings down so much!!

Hello this is my first post,
My baby is two weeks old and I am having trouble breastfeeding. At the
moments she will take no more than 5 minutes at the breast before becoming
distressed and crying/screaming. She then falls asleep and refuses to take
anymore from breast or bottle. I am worried that she will not be getting
enough feed - I have had no visit from a health visitor as yet so am
unable
to judge my babies health - weight gain etc. In the last 8 hours she has
only fed for about 16 minutes in total - I am woried - can anyone offer
any
advice
Thankyou
