gassy baby, please help

Hello ladies, I'm new here, my baby boy is 2 weeks old and he's having gadsy problem, I'm breasfeeding and I watch what I eat, like no gassy vegetables, no chocolate, but it doesn't help, I see him cry and suffer trying to pass some gas and he wakes up just because of it so I don't have much sleep. Could it be from my prenatal vitamins? I don't know what to do.

I tried to use those drops with my first child but the thought of giving my baby medicine with every feeding scared me, I drunk lots of dill tea and it helped but with my second it doesn't seem to help so far, maybe I need to wait more for improvements

Sometimes there isn't air in their tummies. In general babies that are breastfed don't suck as much air as bottle fed babies so they burp less. Unless your my daughter who burps and spits up more when I nurse then when she has a bottle lol.

I try to burp him after each feeding but sometimes it doesn't work not even when I do it for 10 min, does he absolutely has to burp or there's times when there's no air bubbles in his tummy after feeding?

Some babies are just gassier then others. Try burping frequently during feedings and see if that helps. You can also try gently pushing his knees up toward his stomach to help him pass gas.
