Colic can almost be like a Dr Jekyl and Mr. Hyde thing. Our son would cry and cry to an extreme extent and then in between those fits of crying he was happy as a clam Its an amazing thing. When they have colic its almost like a spell has been cast over them and very few things do the trick to stop the crying.

The shhhhing is really the key My son definitely had colic from the second week all the way through the 11 week mark, crying nonstop and crying so much that we were really worried something was wrong with him, but when we learned to properly Shhhh – it sounds simple but its a very specific was to do it – it had an amazing soothing effect on his crying.

Starting at about 6 weeks my daughter started crying – and I mean CRYING HARD – every time shed eat. It was such a painful time for our family. But yes, just like it says here, by the time she hit the 3 month mark, the crying and the colic were gone. She still cries of course – but NOTHING like she used to So time does heal all wounds, even this one, but man was that a long 3 months

I love that people used to think your baby would get colic from getting the evil eye from a witch Its amazing how far weve come studying and treating colic and yet its still such a mystery We can cure major diseases but its still a very specific technique to deal with a baby crying.
