    Well lil man still hasn't improved iv tried all the required things to try and change of food water all that but no good today he is really bad screaming and pushing and not wanting to drink much of his bottle so I went to chemist and they recommended soy milk so tryin that and goin to my gp Tuesday to talk to them if it gets worse in mean time I'll go to out of hours surgery. So hard not to cry when he is in pain and nothin I can do he must feel I don't want to help him it's awful

    Cry if you need to. God knows I've cried so much watching our little man in pain, hopefully the soya helps a bit but maybe go to gp anyway.

    I cried more than once over constipation :( definitely head to gp on tues: we were put on lactolose and that definitely helped, so don't despair. My Gp sent us to a&e when she was 4 weeks old for tests so if your not happy definitely head to out of hours doc.

    Does anything give him relief?

    We had concerns over our little man and took him to a&e in crumlin. As he hadn't yet been vaccinated we were seen immediately and he was thoroughly checked over. Don't be afraid to seek whatever care you think he needs.
