For the last few days my babs has had a cold, which made it difficult for him to feed.... we got nose drops and had him at the doctors...
Now his nose has improved a bit, but he has BAD BAD wind because of his attempts at feeding with a blocked nose... I feel so sorry for him when he arches and cries blue murder because of the pain.
To help with this I have bought 2 x Tommee Tippee Medical Anti Colic bottles with variflo teats... these bottles are supposed to help wind. It does seem to help a bit, but he feeds VERY slowly from these. I have also ordered 4 x Dr Brown's bottles, which will hopefully be delivered tomorrow. I have also bought Colief drops for wind... All in all this little bottle trip and drops has cost me nearly 60GBP.... Not that I am complaining, I would do anything to make him more comfy, but at the same time just want it to work!
The thing is, even with these drops and the special bottles, his little legs are still up in his tummy.... I have rubbed his little back and patted him and nothing is bringing the nasty's out!
I would appreciate any suggestions......
