I agree with Jeans post.  Please ensure mom is emptying one breast and
infant is receiving adequate amounts of hindmilk. Is this infant only
staying at one breast long enough to remove foremilk and then moving to the
next? I have seen this be the sole cause of excessive gassiness, loose
stools, poor weight gain and colic.

Good Luck!
