    try offering him small amounts every hour instead of a full bottle every 3 hours.

    Sometimes.. AR formula's can help spewy babies because its thicker so it stays down better (well its meant to).

    Try and feed him upright, not laying down but more sitting up IYKWIM


    Just remember, he is still very very young and his little digestive system is still new. Good luck

    Yes, I will try that -- offering more often -- and see if that works. Also I have some Infant's Friend that I will put in.

    I do keep him elevated, and have the cot on an angle too. It is such a horrible thing to watch him grunting etc!

    I told all this to the MCHN and she really wants me to continue on this Karicare low lactose for the next 24 hours at least.
