Hope someone can help or give advice, im not a mum and not got kids, my sister as had a little girl and she crys all the time they have given he coleave as she had collic but she dose not drink all her bottle and wakes up every hour when she puts her down she screams she is just 3 months old now.

My mum seems to think its her milk as she is always sick and yesterday she messed 4 baby grows in the space of a few hours shes had her at the doctors and she is so tired she called me at work yesterday crying so i left and went down shes had no sleep really for weeks and you can tell by looking at her is there anything else she can do.

She used to work with babys on intesive care and she is now a school teacher and is really good with kids but her own is driving her mad she loves her to bits you can see that but she needs sleep any advice will be good.

Thanks Katie

She might be allergic to her milk? A friend of mine has similar problems and found he boy was intolerant to something in the formula so she had to change over to some special one.

as silly as this sounds.but i'm sure other mums will agree,does she bring baby's wind up regularly when feeding? try giving just a little milk then "burping" baby then more milk..i might add some babies like being put over the shoulder for this,some like being laid on their tummy on ums knee,and some are better if you sit them on your knee with one hand under the babies chin and rubbing its back.
god now i'm feeling all motherly

I agree with this post tel you sis contact health visitor her the doc and tel them she would like this problem investigated...my daughter had to have her milk swapped as one did not agree with her sounds very similar to your sisters baby

She as changed the milk, and everytime she dose this she is sick she burps and winds her loads my mum as been out this morning and bought some soya milk to see if it is the milk but i could tell her to try wind her a diffrent way and see if this helps, could she be playing on it and every time she puts her down she crys for attention, i have told her to leave her but if she leaves her she screams that much she goes blue so she as to pick her up i dont no what else to say.

If this was my daughter i would not be happy tel you sis go see the gp or health visitor as she is not happy.
How is her weight gain if she is alergic to milk she wont be gaining as much wait.

Yep she could be trying it on my sisters daughter was always crying to be picked up....mine 3 got put down from day 1 so all babys are different.
I do feel for your sis as its hard work looking after a baby and one that crys loads must be hard work

the reason i'm thinking it might be wind, is because my grandson was like your sisters baby.another thing might be the teet size..lol bear with me on this lol. you can get different size holes in the teets or could..if this is still the case try getting a teet with a smaller hole.that way baby wont drink as fast.

You can get different shapes teats as wellthe colic ones are good

Sorry to read your sister is having such trouble with her baby - I do not have a baby either so cannot give "motherly" advice but from the little I do know (having helped with my baby brother when I was younger), if your sister is doing all the practical things possible (and some good ideas were suggested by Janice) then she SHOULD see her GP - and be insistent upon seeing the doctor. Some doctors will try not to listen and put it down to "anxious mum" syndrome but do not be fobbed off. Your sister needs some professional help.

Wishing your sister and her baby all the best.

She as been to doctors he said to try soya milk so think we will do that and il get her to do what janice said with winding and the teets.
