Colic From 2 weeks old

Our baby is now 2 months old she suffers constantly from what our doc and specialist called colic; pain and discomfort passing wind and bowel movements, pulling legs to chest and hands closed and pushing them into her face pain crying and deep screaming when it really hurts.

The specialist got her poo tested the result was normal. But she is not. We have it very bad at about 5pm till 8.30pm. I have 2 days where she will sleep in the day with no pains but then it starts all over again she would wake up from a deep sleep scream?

I thought it was from not doing a poo as we have bowel problems too but she some times still wakes up screaming with a empty bowel. She is on formula and have tried 6 different ones and have tried drops.

I don't know what else to do?

colicky baby
by: Anonymous

hi my son is 3 months old now. He was very sick when he was born and had to stay at sick kids for a month. We came home when he was 1 month and he cried for almost 12 to 14 hours every day then my doctor told me he has colic. I give him woodwards gripe water oval drops only when he is very upset. Massaging his tummy with olive oil helps, swaddle him, hold him upright keep tapping his back gently and put very sooting music on. That really helps. If u give ur baby bath and feed him swaddle him and hold him upright to burp before he goes to bed he will sleep through the night. My son sleeps for about 10 hours at night and only gets up once to feed. Never feed ur baby and bath him.

My doctor suggested similac lactose free formula that I think helped a lot and if u are breast feeding don't drink milk. :) i hope it helps

We just endured the colic for 3 months... NEW
by: Anonymous

I was lucky with my twin girls, but not so lucky with my son. My son was born 4 years after my daughters. He was healthy when he was born, but when he was 10 weeks old, he developed colic.

It was the longest 12 weeks I have ever experienced. After we could think past all of the headache's and few nights of no sleep, we began to notice a different cry. This cry sounded different and was mostly after meals. We took our son to the doctor and discovered that he had colic.

I had read about many different types of massages that would help to soothe a colicky baby. My husband and I would massage him after ever feeding and this did help the situation, but it didn't make the situation go away right away.

I must say this was a very hard time on our whole family, but after 12 weeks it slowly went away. It takes lots of love!
