When not burped or unable to pass gas, she gets cramps in stomach especially during feeding. As a result of which she cries too much. not gaining proper weight as unable to feed due to gas. goes to sleep hungry. very restless during sleep due to hunger &gas. haemoglobin is low,doctor has prescribed iron drops.iron drops further increase the gastric issue. She is also having reflux problems . She vomits too much milk and sometimes curdled milk. She also cough sometimes as she chokes on vomit.Kindly help.
We had consulted doc who had prescribed calcarea phos. She then sleeps properly but her gastric is persistent. The doctor had then prescribed natrum phosphorucum 6 x , two tablets daily which she is consuming now since 3 days due to which vomit is much less but gastric issue still there. Feeling helpless.

Hello dear parents,
Your worry of concern is valid. I think the baby is genetically lactose intolerant. Sometimes children tend to carry certain genes where milk is intolerable and all the above mentioned symptoms are seen. Try giving other forms of milk like plant based or special formula milks which are for lactose intolerant infants. There is nothing to worry about the child some children are born with it and it can be corrected with homeopathic medicines which will help their GUT system to digest milk and milk products.
Next Steps
if the vomiting is persistent give 4 pills of aethusa cynapium 30 mixed in a spoon of your breast milk it'll help the baby temporarily to stop vomiting and consult for constitutional medication which can help the child from this intolerance.

Continue treatment with the existing doctor and discuss the problems with him as he is well versed with the case and will be able to give a quicker solution. Also remember burping is required for all infants and the problems faced by you are common. I understand that you feel worried as a mother but find solace that this is not an extraordinary or difficult problem. Try to allay your anxiety. No need to worry. Things will be sorted out. Yet if you want a second opinion you may consult Dr Tanmay Palsule @ CHINCHWAD or Pimple Saudagar clinic or online at Dr Palsules Homoeopathic Consultancy.

If the medicine prescribed by the current doctor is helping then continue the treatment. Discuss the remaining issues with him/her and take further treatment.
Mixing too many medicines at a time will spoil the case.
Have a trust in your doctor.

Dear Parent,
Thank you for sharing your concerns so clearly I truly understand how emotionally and physically exhausting it must be to watch your little one in discomfort every day. As a mother myself and a practitioner who has treated many such infant cases over the years, I want to assure you that your daughterâs symptoms gas, reflux, poor weight gain, disturbed sleep, and feeding difficulties are not uncommon in sensitive infants, and they can be gently and effectively managed with constitutional homeopathy.
Itâs a good step that youâve tried Calcarea Phos and Natrum Phos 6X, which are often used in such conditions. However, in your childâs case, the persistent gastric discomfort and low weight gain indicate that we may need to go deeper and tailor a remedy more specifically to her constitution, feeding patterns, and sensitivity. Homeopathy can address the root causes including digestive immaturity, reflux tendency, and even emotional restlessness that infants often experience due to physical discomfort.
I would be happy to take her detailed case personally and guide you step-by-step. Iâve helped many infants with similar issues regain calm digestion, sleep better, and gain healthy weight and you can check video testimonials and Google reviews from parents whoâve seen results at my clinic. Please feel free to reach out or book a consultation Iâd be honored to support you and your baby in this healing journey.
Warm regards,
Dr. Jyoti Kadkol
Health Global Homoeopathy Clinic, Bangalor

From what you’ve described gas, colic, reflux, restlessness, frequent vomiting, and poor weight gain it seems your child is experiencing a combination of gastric sensitivity and possibly infantile colic due to air swallowing , immature digestion and improper assimilation.
I would recommend a complete homeopathic consultation to prescribe a constitutional remedy tailored to your child’s sensitivity and system. That will not only relieve gastric issues but also help with growth and immunity in the long term.
