What should i do for my baby who might be colic?

Excessive Crying: First make sure that the baby is healthy by seeing the pediatrician. My definition of colic is unexplained crying in an infant < 6 months. Some think that it is caused by gas and it does occasionally respond to anti gas meds. I think the best strategies are harvey karp's 5 s's: swaddling, side position, shhhh ing sound; swinging and sucking. See book! check you self for depression!

Carry baby: This is a very stressful time for your family. Colicky babies demand constant attention. You are sleep deprived already, then on top of that, you have the constant needs of this child. Walking in a sling is super helpful. Consider "baby wearing" as much as possible, not just you but dad and other family members. Never shake the baby, you can always set her down and let her cry, take a break!
