She does a little cry out/grunt, and then stops, and then in a few minutes does it again. It only just started yesterday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680936 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 15:27:18 +0000 FaithFertility 2680936@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Can't make us look like we know what we are doing.......lol<br /> He also spits up and G never did! So we have to hold him up for 10 mins it seems or else SPLAT! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680818 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:58:37 +0000 snowjewelz 2680818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KayKay: haha so strategic! At least only one out of two needs to change :silly: </p> <p>@FaithFertility: haha what's with these siblings... DH was freaking out cuz he didn't know baby pimple/acne is a "thing" :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680809 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:51:01 +0000 FaithFertility 2680809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KayKay: of course!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680808 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:50:41 +0000 FaithFertility 2680808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: hahaha yep, AJ has it too and dry dry skin, G never did </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680791 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:17:58 +0000 KayKay 2680791@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: @faithfertility: of course after i typed that message, he immediately spit up ALL over me. most of it went down my nursing tank...and somehow avoided his clothes completely! :silly: but even when it's big blurps, it's like once a day, not every feeding! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680789 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 13:15:00 +0000 snowjewelz 2680789@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KayKay: Ok they sound exactly the same! Except K2 doesn't even spit up much. So I will just wait! She is only about to be 4 weeks so we got a while! </p> <p>@FaithFertility: Seriously, so much new stuff that I never dealt with before! K2's sprouted some baby pimples too, which K1 never did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680732 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 11:21:33 +0000 FaithFertility 2680732@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@KayKay: That was/is AJ too!!! He slits up all the time! G NEVER did! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680731 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 11:19:03 +0000 KayKay 2680731@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: R is super-grunty too, way more than the girls, and for the first couple of weeks, it definitely seemed to bother him to pass gas and/or poop. Now he doesn't get quite as angry about it, but still grunts a ton. He also has about 50/50 green/yellow poop -- and I don't remember either girl having any green ones. AND he is definitely a happy spitter, whereas both girls were minimal spitters. </p> <p>But he is gaining weight well, having plenty of wet/dirty diapers, isn't otherwise fussy, doesn't arch/cry/refuse to feed, and doesn't typically spit-up a *ton*. And I only feed one side at a time (so the green poop is not a foremilk/hindmilk thing). So we're just letting it ride!</p> <p>I think it's just normal baby reflux (immature GI), nothing that needs to be treated! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680564 Mon, 16 Jan 2017 01:47:45 +0000 thepicklemonster 2680564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS grunted a lot in his sleep, only at night, until around 12 weeks. He's only 15 weeks now but no reflux issues or anything like that. Ped said grunting was normal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680548 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 22:55:32 +0000 Portboston 2680548@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes and he was diagnosed with silent reflux. He grunted, had hiccups ALL the time, didn't sleep well, constantly tried to shove his entire hand in his mouth (apparently they're trying to get to the pain in their throat) and fussed (but not much) during feedings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680404 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 15:29:56 +0000 peaches1038 2680404@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: for us, it was most feedings. And no worries about the questions! I hope you get it figured out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680371 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:26:18 +0000 FaithFertility 2680371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: It's the thumb :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680367 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:23:44 +0000 LindsayLou 2680367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My kiddo was a super loud sleeper as a newborn. Lots of grunting and squirming and snuffling. She did not have reflux, and also never woke herself up by being loud--although we woke up frequently. She grew out of it around 12 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680364 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:20:36 +0000 snowjewelz 2680364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: that's great!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680363 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:19:27 +0000 catlady 2680363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: No, not every feeding, but often enough that I got worried. Maybe like every 2-3 feedings. Yesterday I think he did it 3 times over the course of the day (before we started his Zantac again). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680353 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 13:08:09 +0000 FaithFertility 2680353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kitkat: Yep AJ too, sleeps 7-4/5 or last night bwas 7-7 :grin: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680347 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 12:54:36 +0000 snowjewelz 2680347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kitkat: that's pretty awesome for a 3 month old! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680342 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 12:41:51 +0000 Kitkat 2680342@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: no, I thought it was waking him up, but eventually realized he was doing it in his sleep. He grew out of it and now sleeps (quietly) for 7-8 hour stretches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680328 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 11:36:04 +0000 snowjewelz 2680328@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@peaches1038: @catlady: like cough and choke every feeding? Or just enough times to be concerned? Sry for all the questions! </p> <p>@FaithFertility: I guess she is too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680318 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 11:11:08 +0000 peaches1038 2680318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: DS also choked and coughed while nursing. I forgot about that symptom since it was so long ago but it definitely was worrisome. He is 14 months now and we've just begun to wean off the Zantac. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680314 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 11:05:51 +0000 catlady 2680314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Yes, we just told our pediatrician about how he kept waking himself up by grunting and how it seemed like he was in pain. I also forgot one more symptom, he would cough and choke while nursing and that was really disconcerting to me. The pediatrician said it sounded like silent reflux and prescribed zantac at that point. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680300 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 10:30:42 +0000 FaithFertility 2680300@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Yep, completely away and he seems to just be a ok!!!!!!<br /> I asked Dr. And he siad yep seemed like he was just figuring things out :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680299 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 10:29:20 +0000 snowjewelz 2680299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: I remember you posting about the blood? So it just kinda went away and that was it? K2 def has green stools now, but not consistent, sometime yellow sometimes green. As I'm typing she's grunting away lol </p> <p>@catlady: how did he get diagnosed? Just with the symptoms? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680297 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 10:27:55 +0000 catlady 2680297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had the same thing as @peaches1038. LO2 was diagnosed with silent reflux at 2 weeks old and we started him on zantac at that point. It didn't perform miracles but he did seem better. Actually his first zantac prescription ran out last week (he's 6 weeks now) and we let him go a couple days without it to see if maybe he had outgrown it and the grunting got awful again and he started spitting up a lot and had hiccups like all day long. So we just started him back on the zantac yesterday and he already seems a bit better again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680296 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 10:27:18 +0000 FaithFertility 2680296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: Gripe water definitely helped!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/gruntingsquirming-in-sleep-gassy#post-2680295 Sun, 15 Jan 2017 10:25:53 +0000 FaithFertility 2680295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@snowjewelz: This was AJ! He would squirm and grunt as if uncomfortable but never really cry!</p> <p>It lasted until 8 weeks about?!<br /> It was paired with his stool being green and bloody once or twice! </p> <p>I truly think it was his GI track as a baby!<br /> But.....G was a very loud sleeper as a baby </p>
