My 6 week old is still dealing with colic. I feel like a madwoman I’ve tried massages, gripe water, infacoil, water inbetween feeds and changing his milk.
I don’t think I can deal with this for another 6 weeks 😭😭 any advice would be greatly appreciated.

For one, have you spoken to your pediatrician? Is baby breastfed? If so, have you tried an elimination diet to see if he may be sensetive to anything in your diet?
The only recommendation I truly have is to try the happiest baby swaddle and the 5 S's technique.

If it's been going on this long I'd say maybe get him checked over by a health visitor or GP? Also as far as I was aware babies this age shouldn't have water, only their milk so maybe double check before giving any more.
My daughter had bad colic and it turned out to be a symptom of cows milk protein allergy. She also had a rash and mucus in her poo so if your little one has any other symptoms it might be worth looking into cmpa.
Hope he feels better soon x

Maybe try holding your baby upside down to release some of the pressure on their body? Hold baby by ankles and dangle for about 3-5 seconds. Helped my baby ❤️ I hope you find something that helps mama this is just a trick my midwife taught me
