"I need some help please.  Mom bf for 2-3 weeks.  At that time baby began
crying at the breast after nursing for 5-10 minutes.  Then baby began having what
mom described as a painful tummyache and screaming for >1 hour before passing
stools. "

Dear Friends:
    What position does the baby choose to be in during feeds? What is the
weight gain. This type of behavior sounds like reflux. If the baby likes to
stretch out its legs ( an attempt to lengthen the GI tract in order to reduce the
discomfort) as well, maybe see a pediatric gastroenterologist......
    warmly,
