Weaning and wind - your experience?

[Michronrub]

Hi my lo is 18 weeks and Has always been quite "windy" it can be difficult to get his wind most if the time . Also on rinitadine for acid.

My question is , will giving him baby aptamil porridge ( one or two spoonsfull) make his wind worse and more difficult to break ?

I have tried him with one spoonful yesterday at breakfast and he had sore wind all day , needed the grip water . Could have just been coincidence ??? Your experience appreciated .

I should add he loved it and almost took my hand off . Just gave him bottle after it

My dd had awful wind off aptamil baby porridge, tried it a few times and it was definitely the porridge that caused it. I just started giving ready brek from 6 months and she was fine from that.

Thanx , I gave him another spoonful at lunchtime today and already he has trapped wind ? Loved the porridge though

I should have also said he only poos once a week and I think this is adding to his pain . Doctor says that's fine but it seems to be bothering him so they gave him senna . Trying it today

My dd loved it too, think it was the banana one we tried. It definitely didn't agree with her though but she was also a very windy colicky baby.
