Tracy Hogg says mothers diet has nothing to do with it, but traditionally we believe it does, strongly :) Mother is ok, a bit weak and stressed out. we will use Arnica, thanks.
will wait for more!

Is chamomilla helping at all? Only give more frequently, as suggested, if it is helping......
Bach Flower remedies are not homeopathic remedies = flower essences to treat emotions.
Is his nose blocked?

You are describing my son when he was a baby! We tired everything. The doc said that it was colic, my mom said he was spoiled,and so on. No one could really find a cause. Screamming and shaking of his arms and legs. I was nursing him and giving no supps. I be came sick and was unable to breastfeed him due to the meds I was. So I needed to give him formula. My doc recommeded one. He stilled was unconsoleable. When we ran out of it my mom bought the "wrong" one. It was lacto-free. I gave it to him anyway. Well after the second feeding his screamming stopped! I thought that he was finally over his "colic". Started to nurse again and the screamming started again! He was Lactose intol. I had no idea that a LOT of babies that were this way could not even have breast milk. Just a sugg. you might want to try giving him Lacto-free formula. I know formula is not the best(I breast feed all six of my childern),but if this is the case,he is suffering it is worth it. After a day or two of feeding you will know if it is. Good Luck

Lactose intolerance is a very good point and worth considering. BUT I believe you can still breastfeed lactose intolerant babies if the mother avoids milk products - making sure she gets good calcium source from other foods..............

The are mixed studies done on this issue. One says it is a myth the other is what you and I think. Avoid ALL dairy products and let your baby empty the first breast before giving the other which might take up to 40min or more to make sure that he is getting more "hind milk". It is okay to only feed on one breast at a feeding if he is getting all he needs. Your body will adjust. Should see improvement up to 10 days. Yes, your wife should try this first. Good point Erika! I am a little off today,sick child and all.

I know there is a homeo medicine for lactose intol, but I cant put a finger on it.
anyone knows about it?
yes, his nose is blocked. but it seems samb nig is working. will tell you tomorrow.
do you really think he's lactose intol. he was crying like hell since almost birth (read start of topic). For the first two days, there was barely any feed! esp the first night ... he took nothing, still next morning he cried too much. he seemed very sensitive. we changed the diapers for the first time and in no time, he was cries like hell.

Lactose intolerance is def. worth considering. However, it may help if you tell us more about the birth at this point - as altho he was peaceful after the birth it is still good to look at the whole story. Were there any problems during the birth? Were there any problems during the pregnancy - for both these questions answer for both mother and child will help...
Apart from poss. mishandling by nurse and vaccination what else happened in the first few hours...was the baby in the nursery with many others or completely alone..was the nursery dark or light?
does the dark or light have any effect now on your baby? how do other temperatures affect him?
is there still a smell from face , eyes and mouth? if so please describe this?

mothers uterus was heart shape. they gave pros-galddin for almost 18 hours, during which she stayed in the labor room and was quite exhausted. then they started oxytocin. the pain became unbearable and she was given pain killer and some sort of tranquilizer. after 5 hours of pain, still dilation was not more than 2-3 cm. finally it was decided to do C-section. Personally I think, she was so exhausted, she would never have been able to do normal delivery.
Rest of the pregnancy was very normal.
The nurse brought him to his mother after 4 hours, saying his crying is disturbing other children in the ward.
there was tube-lights in the labor roon and the nursery. both were well lighted. His mother does leave him in complete darkness saying he might wake up scared!
he doesnt like being hot. cries when hot, except when you make him sleep in your arms. he like the heat of the body. but not during feeding. leaves feeding when hot and sweaty.
his sweat and breath used to smell fetid before he was given Cal Carb 30C.
he feels good when put in a pram, which provide sort of upward tilted seating. But does not like sleeping flat on the back.

I've read this all through again and am not clear how long and when he cries for? is this what you refer to when you say it changed from even-midnight and is all day? do you mean he cries all day?
Has he only cried during feeding since getting a blocked nose and is this improving?
I presume his crying is not from hunger or boredom? Does he push you away when you try to comfort him or is he always better for a cuddle?
I know this must feel like I am asking the same questions -sorry - but I need to be clear on these points.
Also when was he given Calc Carb 30c and did this improve anything other than the fetid smell?

Erika, first of all, you are helping me, so I should be sorry to trouble you rather that you!
no he doesn't cry the whole day but with gaps, but when he does, he cries very hard and is generally inconsolable for say 1/2 hr or so.
His blocked nose has improved. sometimes it seems he is hot and leaves milk. but yesterday and today, we observed that sometimes he just wants to sleep and has difficulty.
He does push away when he's crying had, when he's a bit settled he likes to be cuddled rather than put to bed. since he starts to cry again.
when Cal Carb was given, he was suffering from excessive stools. so we couldnt really see what else was improved.

I would suggest trying Stramonium.
Usually I would suggest to take a descending potency dosage for one day only - in the morning give one dose of 1M, around noon one dose of 200c, in the evening one dose of 30c. The 'theory' behind this sort of dosing is that it reduces the chances of aggravations. Some people also use ascending potencies for the same reason - you could opt for this if you prefer. :)

Perhaps it would make sense, after reading all these posts, to heed Passkey and give thuja since the baby was vaccinated so early and then see if it helps. Syph. has been given and that is the usual remedy for so much crying after birth. Perhaps Staphysagria for the fear and the invasion of a needle that came with the vaccination? Erika, what do you think?

All are possibilities and none are wrong or right suggestions. I see Stramonium strongly indicated from the birth and from the symptoms following the birth to now, so have considered the symptoms prior to vaccination which still show through to this date...:)
