Baby sleepy but wont sleep easily
My baby is 3 months old weighing 5.3 kg on breast feed only.
She usually sleeps well during day. At night although she is very sleepy and exhausted it takes a lot effort(swinging, patting on shoulders,moving around) to put her to sleep specifically between 10pm-2 am.She wakes up as we put on bed , gets uneasy moves her hands legs and starts crying mostly witb eyes closed, sometimes gets uneasy and takes burp although she is burped after feed.We are giving her collicaid everyday at night as she becomes cranky to sleep.Also she passes 4-5 stools watery yellowish and greenish with mucus.
Is collicaid safe to give everyday?
Is her stomach and stool normal?
Could there be any issue for her not sleeping and cranky at night?

Dear Mother,
Giving Colicaid daily is not a good idea.
We need to check and assess her feeding efficacy.
Next Steps
Kindly Consult online/ in clinic (if in Nagpur) for assessment of your breastfeeding /Lactation Counseling
