Pinkpalace that does sound like reflux to me, maybe take him to your gp or MCHN to get him checked out.. DS was diagnosed with reflux at about 5 weeks old, because of the fussy feeding, poor weight gains and vomiting. my MCHN recommended giving him about 1ml of milanta before each feed for a 24 hour period to see if it helped, which it did, it made a huge differance, like a different baby. he was then proscribed zantac and is still on it now, will probably try and take him off it soon and see what happens? the zantac definatley helped with the pain and screaming but we still had to put up with a fair amount of vomiting, its amazing how they can put on weight when it looks like they've lost there whole feed, but they do, DS is a very healthy happy bub now and yours will be too!
if you have any questions let me know if i can help?
all the best, i know what your going through.
