Weathering Colic for New Parents by Jason Rickard

A common problem many times facing parents is Colic. Estimates say that between 15-25% of infants are born with Colic. Although it is not believed to effect a baby’s development it is still a struggle for parents to cope with. Babies with colic most often cry for several hours at a time with diaper changes and feedings having no effect.

Some of the symptoms that your little one may have colic are (but not limited to) as follows:

1.) A high pitched cry that does not let up in intensity, sometimes for hours at a time

2.) Pulls their legs towards their chest or holds them straight out

3.) Face becoming flush and warm while legs feel cooler

4.) Held breathes

5.) Painful facial expressions

Unlike many other childhood ailments, there is no one specific reason a baby may have colic. There are several factors however that may exasperate colic.

They include:

1.) Lack of Burping

2.) Food Allergies
