Kendamil comfort or goatđź‘Ś my son had colic and we exhausted every option! We tried homeopathic medicine, a chiropractor and then changed his formula to kendamil goat with the pro comfort drops and it worked wonders!

Enfamil gentle ease purple box

I used Gerber Soothe (and the probiotic drops) for both my boys, but my youngest is 6 so, that was many moons ago!

I used Similac alumentum (hope I spelled it right ) with my first .
My second I used Enfamil gentlease , honestly I would highly recommend the gentlease

Kendamil, sold at walmart made in england…we tried absolutely everything else…thus worked like a charm…it is organic and doesn’t have 20 chemicals listed.

We used Ferber gentlease or something to that effect

My girls both had the best results with soy based formulas.
Just remember all formulas cause gas & belly issues as babys body adjusts to the feeding changes from being born. In the uterus your body breaks down the food & they take the nutrients. Now their body is breaking down the formula & nutrients.

I also used Mommy’s Bliss Gripe Water & Gas Relief to help with discomfort. It was a godsend for us.

If the soy formulas don’t help, there’s Nutramigen. Be sure you’re burping her enough while bottle feeding. My son didn’t burp, but he farted, and the pediatrician said as long as the gas was getting out that was fine. You may want to try different positions to burp your baby: upright, at an angle, flat over your knees, etc. And I’ve heard good things about gripe water, and Mylicon gas relief for babies.

Might be worth a chat with your paed to rule out any milk or other possible allergies first and go from there.

Breast milk. Oat milk. Almond. Coconut. Cashew. Plant milk. I would never give my baby animal milk.

My son was bad with colic, but I just had to burp him extra well and not cave to the cries for more milk and skip the burp. It was the worst mistake and made him more colicky. Burp burp burp.

The only formula my daughter could take is prosobe. It’s a soy based formula from Enfamil. The similac soy one made her projectile vomit.

I also use gas drops and make sure she’s burped well.

Bath, submerged belly under water and doing bicycle moves with legs

Best thing for a gassy baby is mother’s brand gripe water
