If you breastfeed your baby, avoid dairy products yourself, along with gas producing foods like beans, onions, cabbage family vegetables and chocolate. Caffeinated beverages should also be avoided. Bottlefed babies can be tried on a soy formula. Feed the baby in an upright position and in a quiet and calm location. Avoid overfeeding and burp the baby frequently during feedings.
Movement is very helpful for colic.
Use a front carrier to provide movement and contact with your baby. Homeopathic colic tablets are very helpful. These tablets are a combination of several homeopathic remedies in a quick dissolving small tablet. They are available at health food stores and can be given every 30 minutes until the discomfort subsides. Enter your name and email below and we will send you occasional newsletters and updates.
