My ds was the same and I always thought it was just their little bodies getting used to digesting things (it's a whole new experience). I went off dairy and gluten for different reasons and found it didn't really make a difference...although ds was 6 weeks by then. I also drink a truckload of peppermint tea! I'd be interested to hear how you go.
I was warned by a few midwives not to drink peppermint tea if breastfeeding. Apparently the menthol decreases milk supply and may cause stomach upsets for the baby. However, I did read somewhere that it is okay, as long as you keep an eye on your supply and don't drink gallons of it. Personally, I didn't drink it as the midwived seemed pretty serious about it.
