It's so frustrating when you can't get the wind up. We used to end up passing her back and forwards, on our shoulders, sitting, laying over our hands, walking round bouncing slightly.
I am the same like 100% struggle with it she hates me doing it however my partner gets her to burp within like five mins x
i know it’s easier said than done but try not to stress. I’m rubbish at burping too and it’s so frustrating, even worse when I pass him over and his dad gets the biggest burp ever out of him.
i’ve been dipping in and out of this thread so i have missed how old your little one is.
I appreciate that every kid is different but the technique that’s worked for both of my boys (who were both difficult to burp) is:
I really struggle too, please don’t worry! Saw a TikTok (
) that explained some wind is because babies don’t really move so it gets stuck, so look for winding techniques that move their bodies a bit to dislodge it - e.g just rubbing their tummy or back won’t necessarily work because it’s not enough movement but doing it walking up and down stairs or while bouncing. I find sitting her up and rotating her body in circles works a charm. As she’s moving more she seems to be able to get it out better! I think I’ve explained that so badly but hopefully you understand what I mean 
It’s so tough when you can’t get it up, so I feel for you! You can
. Or if you don't want to leave the milk sitting out the fridge I pump, put it into bags all in the fridge then add them all together to make up a decent amount when they are at same temperature. Means you don't need to worry if you go over the 5 hours out fridge.We had a potential reaction to egg about a month ago - our dietician said to not give any egg based products for about a week, then give about a teaspoon worth of thoroughly cooked egg and see for reaction. My baby's possible reaction was diarrhea and vomiting hours later, a delayed response type. The advice for you may be different though if he reacted that quickly! The GP can give piriton for times like this.Anyone got any advice for allergies? Tried my baby with scrAmbled egg earlier, he only had a small about and loved it but within minutes of him eating it, this rash popped up round his neckhe does have a bit of a rashy neck anyway from dribble/milk but I was really surprised when this happened so quickly! He was absolutely fine in himself, didn’t seem phased at all, had his normal feeds, no temperature and within about 30 mins it had completely disappeared again. I’m gonna hang fire on adding any other allergens to his diet for a few days but would you try the egg again in a few days? I’m not really sure what to do.

You're not rubbish, some babies are just very difficult burpers!! Have you seen wonky winding? Really helped us!
Hahaha very relevant to me this month, hence why I'm back to work in 3 weeks time
Ooh ok, thank you. I’ll give them a call on Monday and see what they say. He’s not been sick and hasn’t poo’d since yesterday lunch.,, if he was going to have diarrhoea by now I would have thought it would happen! How has your baby been with egg since?
Sounds good, I would just avoid it until they advise you..I think as ours was possible delayed reaction they were ok with us testing again at home but any instant reactions need to be skin prick tests I think. He's been fine since with it - I think it was just a very weirdly timed stomach bug! As he's had scrambled egg etc since. He is allergic to dairy so I really panicked when we thought egg too. I agree that if he was going to have an upset tummy with it it would have happened by now!
Can you raise one end of the cot? That's worked for usBaby’s too uncomfortable at night with colic to be put down in her crib, she’s grunting and then crying every times she’s put down (but sleeps on me when I pick her up). She’s currently on infacol. Any other suggestions for her which worked for any of you? I can’t keep holding her for ages I start to fall asleep and that scares me

combined with her constantly throwing her abidec up too shes just so uncomfortable. The only way I managed to settle her for about and hour last night was by holding her legs gently up to her stomach. After about 20mins she drifted off and slowly stopped grunting and then proceeded to let out a tit load of farts. Then it was time to feed again .If it’s any consolation I had the same night. Thought I was watching tv then woke up and realised I was dreaming that I was awake with her. 11-6am of constant settling, putting down, resettling, putting down 🥱Baby’s too uncomfortable at night with colic to be put down in her crib, she’s grunting and then crying every times she’s put down (but sleeps on me when I pick her up).

Dentinox worked for us on the nights she was unsettled and colicky.

). If you can try and figure out why she’s colicky, I found it much easier. For us the inconsolable crying was down to wind, so looking at ways to help that made it much easier. She also gets colicky when she’s overtired, so a dark room with no distractions and a calm feed helped. I’m not a medical expert, but I’m of the opinion that colic is a symptom of something else, rather than a condition on its own, so if you can help the something else hopefully the colic symptoms will reduce. Thinking of you because it’s tough, but sounds like you’re doing a great job!
