Q.

My 5 and half month old baby does not sleep properly in the night. He keeps on rolling on his sides, sucking his thumb, without opening his eyes. Also sleeps in between. It seems he is not having sound sleep.

A. that's due to gas. Gas issue is common can cause discomfort to baby . For best give only mother milk to baby , avoid use of bottle feeding or formula milk . burp baby after every feed for 20 minutes by keeping baby upright on shoulder.for relief can do cycling motion of the legs and also massage tummy gently in morning . Can be given gastica drops 1ml to baby for gas. Colicy pain is worse at night time and and makes the baby cry whole night and disturb sleep . give drops meftal spas or colicaid 0.5 ml at evening or night time . If persistent cry immediately see a doctor.
