Baby cry right after feed, may i know how we can solve it?

My baby usually wont stop drink during feeding. he can finish up a 80ml fomula milk within 10min. I'm not sure is it too fast or other reason to cause him cry after feed. Today is the second day that he turn into this crying mode... n is there anyway to solve it?

10 minutes is fast. Likely got winds inside. Check with pedia doctor. You must burp him properly EVERYTIME finish milk. Burping takes time, could be as long as 30 to 45 minutes to hear that burp sound out. Check also for sign or hmd. sometime is is just a few red dots like mosquito bites while both hand and foot are clear. Again check with kid doctor.

How old is your LO? Bottle fed babies can easily get colicky especially if they are young. You can try paced feeding. And also do smaller feeds instead of 80ml in 10mins. Sometimes babies need more than one burp so you can try to burp every 20ml. Also check that you are using the correct size teats that is suitable for your LO’s age.

Can be many reasons behind it.. depending on how old, it can be growth spurt and perhaps not enough milk, or if it is gas, put on medicated oil on tummy and massage gently (ILU) before feeding and burp your baby after feeding, and spend some time during daytime to do tummy time to relief gas.

Maybe 10 minutes is too fast. Usually bottle-fed babies in particular may be more prone to swallowing a lot of air during feeding. This can trap gas in their stomachs and be uncomfortable.

How old is your baby? May get wind if drink too fast. Check with your pd if you can introduce some solid food to replace some milk intake. All the best :)

He might have gas in his tummy?

Maybe he is colic
