What is the best way to get a baby who is 7 weeks old and has colic, to stop being so fussy through the day?
Hi,
Have you tried the Mylicon Infant Gas Drops? Sometimes swaddling your baby and holding he/she closely to your stomach helps. Loud noises from the vacuum, running water, holding them on a clothes dryer in motion sometimes helps. I wish you and your baby much relief! All the best!
I found an infant swing helpful, especially around dinnertime - it gave hubby and me about 20 minutes of time together to eat. Also, used to place the infant carrier in front of the dishwasher when running it. Many kinds of white noise would help for short stretches of time. No one thing works all the time, every time. Just have to keep trying. Most babies get past this stage by the third month. Good luck.
Check with your doctor and have him check to see if the baby has partial Paloric Stenosis. It is when the Paloric Muscle is partially closed and the baby has projectile vomiting. My son did and they added Bananas to his formula to make it heavier so it would enter his stomach. That eased his fussing a lot because he got more nutrition and felt satisfied.
