miserable three week old

My little baby boy is crying most of his waking moments. He is breastfed and while eating He pulls off the breast screaming and arching his back. he vomits with every feed. The doctor is thinking he has reflux but I can't imagine giving my three week old previcid. Can anyone help please?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please give him a single dose of Colocynth 30c and report back.

Dissolve one pill in half glass cooled, boiled water. Give one tea spoon from it.

You can try the colocynthis 30 c. However if it does not
work you can go over to http://www.joedelivera.com and see his
protocol for infant gerd which has helped out many mothers on this.

This is an acute condition that the babies grow out of, they don't know
the cause of it. There are other remedies for this if these two
approaches do not work.

Also, till you are feeding, please try to cut back on gas-producing foods like beans, cabbage, cauliflower etc.

I forgot to ask, how is your digestion & stress/anxiety etc. as it will have marked effect on your baby since he is breastfed.

My digestion is great,I I'm really stressed as there ate major changes taking place over this month.

You can get this remedy from medical stores or supermarkets near you as now most carry homeopathic remedies too.

If 30c is not available, 12c or even 6c is fine though more doses will be needed for 12c or 6c.

How long am I waiting for improvement? It's been two hours and he is still pretty miserable.

Last night was the best night in a long time. He only had one screaming fit from 2-4. He didn't really feed much butt did alot of pooping and fell back to sleep on his own.

I am glad for you.

You can give him the dose of Colocynth 30c as & when needed.

The simple rule of thumb is that if after giving the dose there is a worsening of symptoms then you have overdosed him. In that case, just wait for 24 hrs for things to get better.

Simone: Thanks, you could have guided her in the meanwhile as I am sure your guidance would have been the same i.e. to wait for a few hours.

Thank you! Does the fact that he isn't interested in eating but is still pooping alot mean he is backed up?
 
juanee1625 last decade
You are welcome.

He can only 'back up' so much since output is dependent on input!

All his symptoms should improve within days, otherwise you can report back with any remaining issues.
