For about a week and a half Bryce has been waking up throughout the night just crying. I can tell that his tummy hurts (and it’s not reflux) and eventually he usually passes gas. The only thing I can think of that might be causing it is is increased intake of solids lately.
Around the last week in February he started eating more baby food (Usually about 1 T a day). Then on March 1 he started eating those Gerber puffs. It wasn’t until a week later (March 7) that he started having this painful gas at night. Every food except the puffs he had had before, but he was eating the puffs for quite awhile before the gas started. So I kind of think it’s just increased solids in general causing it, not a specific food.
Does anyone have any ideas of what I could do to help him? I feel like I’ve tried everything! I’ve tried Mylanta. I’ve tried tummy massage. I’ve tried Mylicon in the past but it always seems to make things worse for Bryce, and I think it’s more for “burping” gas so I hesitate to try it. Anything else I could try? I just feel so bad for him.
Should I maybe hold off on the solids even longer? I really hate to stop them because he’s finally doing so well with them considering his feeding aversion.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

I hope the doctor has a good solution for him.
