Experience with colic?

Question

My daughter is 3 weeks old and extremely fussy in the evenings starting around 9pm!

She does not spit up ( just very occasionally) she has regular bowel movements, she eats well (bottle fed)

Can anyone weigh in on their experience with infant colic! I'm also debating if a switch in her formula may help with the fussiness?

It is beyond frustrating not knowing what to do to soothe my baby, she's unconsolable when she gets like this. 😢😢😢

Answer

My boy gets fussy starting at 10! It's so hard, he's also 3 weeks old.

Answer

My daughter is 3 weeks old and every evening around 7-8 for about an hour she just screams uncontrollably. Her nappy will have been changed, she's been fed and burped etc and nothing I do settles her. I'm not sure if it's colic or reflux and I'm a FTM so no experience. I don't see my Healrh visitor till next Monday so I'll ask then. For now I guess I'll just cope!

Answer

Have you ever heard of Colic Calm? It's a type of gripe water that is amazing for colic! You can buy it at most Walgreens! It's a bit pricy (I think around 20.00) but It worked wonders for us. You can hear it hit babys tummy and it instantly stops the crying! If you decide to try it, don't freak out when you open it up because it is black. You will want to use a bib on the when giving it so that it won't stain your baby's clothes too.

Answer

Look up the book "happiest baby on the block."  It's all about soothing colic by recreating a womb-like environment

Answer

Try oval!! It works wonders my baby is always gassy and fussy and that stuff works wonders!!

Answer

I have tried infacol and regular gripe water, doesn't seem to do much. I do want to try some colic calm as I've heard amazing things about it too! I've also heard rave reviews for Cocyntal, all natural too, however it's for 1-6 months so haven't tried it just yet. 
A tight swaddle settled her last night, but some nights she is beyond consolable 😢

Stressful right mamas?

Answer

Look for Mylicon at your drug store. Best remedy for colics.

Answer

My daughter has a fussy period at night, too. The only fix I've found is to put on the ErgoBaby and wear her. Calms her right down and she falls asleep in a matter of minutes. I don't know what people do without it!! Good luck!

Answer

Do you have a swing or bouncer? That's supposed to help with colic
