Baby colic - what it is, why it happens and what you can do about it?

Hello Mommies,

It is really hard for a mother to see her baby in pain. This anxiety becomes worse in the case of smaller babies and infants because they can’t express. He/she cries inconsolably for hours and you can’t be able to figure out the reason. In most of the cases, the baby has colic.

Now one needs to understand what is Colic and why it happens to soothe a colicky baby properly.

What is Colic?

Colic is definitely something tummy related. When you see your baby cries a lot, he/she hates to eat, sleep and play, it can be a sign of having Colic. Make sure that your baby doesn’t have any other discomfort for pain or teething, illness or constipation.

Colic causes pain in infant’s gastrointestinal tract. It usually starts in the early evening and lasting for 1-2 hours. Symptoms include gassiness, apparent abdominal pain, irritability, a distended belly and long, inconsolable bouts of crying. Colic rarely lasts after baby’s third month, and usually peaks at about four to six weeks of age.

Why does it happen?

There’s no particular reason behind colic, but many physicians cite the baby’s diet like if the baby is sensitive to formula or something the nursing mother is eating.

Here are some possible causes for colic-

  • An immature and poor digestive system.
  • If the baby has a food intolerance or allergy for any particular food like cow’s milk or soy protein or formula milk.
  • An underdeveloped central nervous system
  • Infant acid reflux
  • Baby’s inability to communicate
  • Overfeeding the infant
  • Intestinal gas.
  • Tobacco exposure

How to sooth a Colicky baby?

First of all, you need to do a dietary modification. Low allergen food can help reducing the symptoms. You can try some pre-digested formula as well.

To help soothe your baby, just swaddle and hold him/her by side on your arms and make a strong shushing sound on his/her ear. You have to make the noise as loud enough so that your baby can hear it.

For instant relieve, you need to change the lying position of the baby. Try to lay him/her down by side, so that it reduces pressure on the upper abdomen and also relaxes the muscles which help reducing the pain to some extent.

If your baby has colic because of Gas, you need to let out the air bubbles from his/her stomach instantly. For that, you try to hold his legs up to his/her chest for a minute and burp you baby frequently during feeding.
