Nursing: Continue to nurse, at at least a 30 degree angle, avoid over feeding, burp mid and after the feeding. If the baby is feeding to quickly, slow the feeding. Monitor temperature and continue to use infant colic remedies.

Colic: A colicky baby is difficult and can inspire despair in the nursing mother. Persist, and keep breastfeeding. If the baby continues to gain weight and have wet diapers, you are doing a great job! As well as giving your baby the ideal food for a human baby. Offer the breast frequently and allow the baby to rest between. If however, baby appears ill, seek medical attention. Best wishes.
