Having a rough time

Kristina • Fri, Jun 10

My son is 8 weeks old today. He is extremely gassy which makes him super fussy. We are on our 3rd kind of formula to try and ease his pain. I have tried enfamil Gentle ease, similac total comfort and now trying soy. Only been on soy for a few days and sometimes he seems perfectly fine and happy and other times he's screaming his lungs out. It's so sad and heartbreaking and I don't know what to do for him. I'm reaching a max level of patience and being a mom isn't making me happy like I constantly hear people say. Like how it's the best thing in the world. Well I'm not enjoying it and I feel terrible about that. We have tried gas drops and gripe water also. Does anyone have suggestions on what else to do??

Also, is it possible for him to be teething this early?? I see a tiny white hard spot on his lower gums which I can only assume is a tooth.

Thanks!!
