Waking up with Wind

[lily81]

My twin boys are now just over 7 months old and they usually sleep through from about 8am to 5/6am but for the last 1-2 months they have been waking up a couple of times during the night with belly aches. I have been trying to watch what I eat and I have also stopped giving them vegies to see if that would help but they are still waking up. I know it is wind because when I go in and pick them up or pump their legs they have a fluff then they go back to sleep. Anyone had the same problem??

Have you tried wind drops? You can get them from any chemist, even Coles supermarket has them.

I have just started my very gassy 5 week old daughter on them & bliss! they seem to be working wonders for her. We had a great sleep last night!!

Try the drops containing simethicone (sp?) (I bought Infacol) they are inexpensive & while I was warned they don't work on all babies, I have heard so many success stories I thought it was well worth a go.
