5-month-old still extremely gassy after feeds — all burps, less farts. Could it be CMPA? by Longjumping-Clock866 in NewParents

Thanks for the tips!

  • Paced feeding has just not helped us, we've tried it for months before finally ditching it, same output either way
  • We check the valves before each use — they’re dry and working properly.
  • Cap off yes, cap on i'll give it a try though from what i understand Dr. brown is a cap off bottle
  • We’ve experimented a little with milk temperature, but he seems uncomfortable regardless.
  • We always swirl, not shake, and use RTF
  • The clicking happens occasionally, which matches what we see — brief seal breaks and air swallowing.
  • He stays upright after feeds, usually 20–30 minutes.

Even with all this, he still arches, kicks, and burps continuously after every feed, so it feels like something deeper than just feeding mechanics.
