Colic

Also indexed as: Abdominal Pain (Infants), Infant Colic

Colic makes babies uncomfortable as well as parents.

Calm your fussy baby’s colic by getting to the root of the cause. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.

• Give calming herbs a try

• During colic episodes, give your infant 1/2 cup (118 ml) of a tea made from chamomile, vervain, licorice, fennel, and lemon balm 
• Find a new formula
• Cow’s milk formula may cause colic in some infants; try switching to soy, goat, or a hypoallergenic product
  
• Don’t let your infant “eat” air 
•  To prevent babies from swallowing air, feed them in the sitting position and burp them frequently
