Hi my son had colic for a couple mothing
and constant ing
for atleast 3 hours per night. Here are
some tips that might work for you...
* gas relief drops- ( such as little
tummies or mylicon) these products help
release gas and work great. I would
suggest these to anyone. If you cant
afford to buy gas drops, or if you are in
a hurry or on a budget, I suggest
peppermint. How this works is you fill a
bottle full of warm water and put the
peppermint in the bottle for about one
minute and shake it...Then you take out
the mint (the round red and white mints)
and feed your baby the mint water. This
will help relieve his tummy ache.
*tummy massage- massage his/her belly from
bottom up and it may help him feel soothed
or release gas.
*if you have a washer or dryer, put him on
it, of course in a safe baby car seat and
watch at all times. This may help him
settle down or fall asleep.
* certain formula- certain formula can
cause upset tummies, there are many (but
expensive) new formulas just for sensitive
tummies....
Please give me your feedback.....

I always took my son wrapped him up really
good in a blanket and bounced him in my
arms while walking around my house...It
always put him to sleep and he always woke
up without his tummie ache..

Dr. Brownes bottles did wonders for my
son, they are special for colic babies.

Baby Colic.... Posted: 04-01-06 12:02pm
I found what works really well for my son
is hyland's colic tablets. They're
homeopathic which means that they're
natural and non-medicinal. I learned
about the product when I went to the
drugstore for some orajel. I found their
teething tablets (which are also a
lifesaver) and then I went online to
research the product and ended up ordering
the colic tablets. My son also likes to
be patted on the back constantly better
than anything else. I've tried rubbing
his belly and back. But for some reason
he'd rather me pat his back. Oh well,
whatever works!

I tried everything, but I found shock
therapy worked best. I summoned all of
my energy and took my daughter for walks
outside. The fresh air tired her out
(and me!) but it worked

Colic bottles and gripe water work best
for my son and he also likes being bounced
up and down to put him to sleep aswell as
its comfy for him when he has wind
