Colicky baby

Pretty sure my baby has colic. She displays all the symptoms. She is literally up screaming for several hours straight at night regardless of what we do (we’ve tried everything). So no one is getting any sleep and it’s honestly so difficult. Anyone have experience w/ this or can help in any way? Any suggestions are useful at this point!

My kids all had colic and I had to change them to soy formula.

After a month i gave my oldest gripe water to help wind and discomfort and she would belch hard after every feed I put it in Leave non essential chores your already tired as And sore tired babies also need more attention then some chores 💕 it's hard work and your definitely not alone Maybe check with doctors about reflux and intolerances if no medicines for gas and colic or sensitive tummy milk in general isn't helping If your breast feeding instead of formula Cut out any gas making foods from your own diet like beans and cabbage and see if it helps it should help after a few days And if not try cutting out wheat or dairy as all the stuff we eat goes right through

My LG had horrendous colic for the first 4 months and it is honestly the most draining, soul destroying thing in the world so I feel you 💖 We tried, bouncing on birthing ball with her and this helped a little, she also seemed calmer if I walked up and down the stairs and this helped to bring up her wind. I also used colief drops (4 drops per feed) and this made a big difference. It's no miracle cure bit it really helped and the crying reduced. Xx

infacol 2 drops before each feed works well, also maybe look into a baby chiropractor sounds soo odd i know but be amazed what they can do to help release gas and show you methods if its bad bad xx

My baby made a complete 180 when I went super strict with my diet. Look at what you are eating and eliminate anything that disrupts your digestive system because it will certainly distrupt his. I know it’s hard and limiting but it’s so worth it for his comfort and your piece of mind. - no dairy - no beans - no tomato sauce - no garlic, onions - no citrus - etc etc

my son was colicky. had reflux. got that under control and he still cried a lot. he’s 10 months and still cries a lot. i think some kids are just naturally more whiney than others, which is fine. but definitely tough. maybe ask the pediatrician if they think reflux, or a protein allergy. gas is very common as this age too. gas drops can help but aren’t an end all be all. this stage is really really tough. my first could have never prepared me for what my second put us through 🤚
