Gas in baby
My son is 37 days old. Due to very low breast milk iam giving him formula (similac ). Even though he doesnot allow, i try to burp him in between and after feeding and keep him in upright position for some time and then keep him in bed for sleeping. But still he is having lot of gas and he could not sleep peacefully. He is restless, making sounds , moving his body vigorously. What can i do for this ?
