Advice needed for 4 month olds wind/sleep

[Mitsy77]

problems? Even though this is my 2nd child I am having serious daytime sleep issues with my DD. This is a run down in brief of whats happening:Bottle feed of S26 (between 150-200mls) with Infants Friends in the bottle, 1 hour later small amount of solids (been on them almost 2 weeks now),1 hour later ready to sleep, swaddled and put down awake she sometimes has a bit of a protest but goes off fine.20 mins later - wakes up crying. Pick her up, over the shoulder, burp!!! (without fail!) Spend the next hour trying to re-settle her because she's still tired but now can't back off to sleep................. she then only gets in about half an hour if at all and we're back to the beginning! Exhausting...This means that I barely get any 'downtime' during the day as I am always re-settling, burping, her when my 2 year old sleeps! Anyone notice anything in there that I might be missing?she's only getting about an hour & 1/2 rest & still wakes once/twice during the night. ThanksI know its gas and playtime is spent usually upright or on her tummy for an hour before bed, you'd think all her wind would be up.......I'm in Australia can we get this Mylicon?

Keep her up until she burps... she has gas and it wakes her up .............. try it...........

Mylicon saved my life when it came to this. Dose her up before feedings and a little bit before you lay her down to sleep (if it's possible) if not then just before feedings.

try keeping the baby in only her diaper and cool. she will start sleepng more like she should. also try bathing her in lavender baby bath before she goes to bed at night it helps calm and relax them so they can rest and sleep better. also try only giving her a little solids of the morning and before her bedtime bath. it also sounds like she might not be getting all her burping out to wake up 20 minutes after asleep to have to burp again. you may want to try a little mylecon drops they help with upset tummy and with the collic. it sounds like she and you both might benefit from her taking them. the generic brand works just as good as the name brand. and they won't hurt her if she isn't colliciky. if they help then she is either having some upset tummy or she has alot of gas/bloat or the collic. good luck and best wishes.
