Reflux & Digestive Discomfort
Does your baby seem uncomfortable after feeds?
Many parents arrive feeling worried, exhausted and unsure how to help their baby feel comfortable. You may have tried different feeding positions, winding techniques, medications or dietary changes, yet your baby still seems unsettled.
Some babies seem uncomfortable no matter what their parents try.
Sometimes reflux and digestive discomfort are not simply digestive issues. A baby's whole system is involved. Birth experiences, body tension, nervous system overwhelm and early stress can all influence how comfortable a baby feels in their body.
Every baby is different. Many babies respond quickly when their body is given an opportunity to settle and release tension.
Some babies appear uncomfortable after feeding, struggle with wind, become unsettled when lying flat, or seem unable to fully relax and digest comfortably.
Sometimes there may be more going on underneath the behaviour.
You may be noticing:
• Frequent posseting or reflux
• Arching backwards
• Difficulty burping
• Wind and discomfort
• Crying after feeds
• Pulling legs up towards the tummy
• Fussiness when lying flat
• Frequent hiccups
• Gulping or swallowing sounds
• Difficulty settling after feeds
• Body tension
• Restless sleep
