My son is 4 1/2 months old, and is quite the fussy one! Sometimes I wonder if he’s colicy. Anyway, I bought those Playtex bottles with the drop in bags, because I heard that those were good. I don’t know if it’s the nipple or what, but he doesn’t seem to like these new bottles.
What do you think are the best bottles for reducing colic?
How to tell if it is really colic?

My 4 wk old daughter is very fussy. The dr changed her formula to Alimentum because she said she has colic behavior. Well from what I’ve read about colic, the babies usually cry around the same times every day. My baby has some days were she won’t fuss at all and then some days she fusses off and on all day. Like yesterday she cried from 2:30pm until 7pm and then again from 3am until 8am this morning. But some days she will cry from 9-11pm and some days not at all. Does anyone think this is symptomatic of colic or could there be some other issue? I give her mylicon drops and sometimes they work and sometimes not.
Any tips for helping my babies colic please?

My baby boy is 6 weeks old this Wednesday. For the last 2 weeks his colic has got gradually worse, despite using anti colic bottles and using infacol or gripe water. Through the day he is so content, but at 6 pm on the dot he starts grizzling and this develops into inconsolable crying until at least 11pm. Then he has his midnight feed and everything goes back to normal?! How long did colic last in your experience and what worked for your baby? Thanks.

What medications or natural remedies are there for colic?
November 27, 2009
We have tried many of the "manuvers" to help with colic like putting her on her tummy, and walking. She is breast fed so formula isn’t the issue. We have addressed my diet and hydration.
I have seen a few posts here for different medication but what else is out there and how well does it work?

What’s the difference between colic and gas?
November 25, 2009
They say that in order for a baby to have colic they cry endlessly…
However, my baby doesn’t cry, rather she makes pushing noises and gets red in the face then I bring her legs up to her chest and she lets out lots of gas, and sometimes poops…
So if she gas lots of gas and doesn’t cry, then it’s not the same as Colic is it?
No, she’s not constipated. She has loose stools because I breastfeed.
She does poop normally, and her poop is watery and yellow mustard color.
She is EXCLUSIVELY breastfed.
