Our 5 week old baby is in a lot of pain with colic,we've tried all the things that we've read on this site and on the web but nothing seems to be helping her.We just feel so helpless seeing her in such pain.Anyone got any suggestions please?

Hi Have you tried the Dr Brown bottles? They are quite expensive but we bought them when my little boy had colic and they were the best thing we bought! We also used Infacol and detinox colic drops, infacol one wk then detinox the next otherwise we found they stoppedworking if we used the same one all the time! We also found a good way of soothing the pain was to put him in a warm bath, it really calmed him down! Hope this helps and dont worry, it wont last 4ever xx

hi my baby is 6 weeks old her colic started around 4 weeks crying from about 4 until 8 every night, we could do nothing to stop her... we tried colief infant drops, and the first day of trying she stopped the same night, and she has had no colic snice, so I would recommend them.

I suppose you've already tried infacol then?
That's what I'm currently using for my two week old daughter, a drop before each feed seems to work, although you have to give it regular for at least four or five days before it starts to work!
Not heard of the Dr Brown's bottles myself, but I shall look out for them!

Hi, Joe suffered with colic really bad, I tried all sorts but found colief drops were the only thing that worked. But remember they only work if you put them in every feed. Also a bath every night. Remember also to keep to a good sleep routine and when settles always put back to bed as alot of babies with colic get used to being cuddled and when older can't settle. I do know how you are feeling is its horrible seeing them cry and in pain. Colic will settle eventually.

have you tried the cow and gate comfort milk? (for colic and constipation) it worked wonders for my little one. he had it for the first 7 weeks and then was able to go back on to the first stage milk as the colic went

My son had colic and we tired Dr Brown bottles and Coleif (expensive) worked wonders for us.
