Colic
Colic affects male babies on the whole, but female babies also do experience colic. The exact cause of colic is not known as yet.Many researchers believe that it may be due to the immaturity of the baby’s digestive system. Some believe that maternal anxiety while baby is still in the uterus may cause colicky baby. Colic problems usually begins at about 2 to 3 weeks old right up to 3 months old. And it happens usually towards the evening. A colicky baby tends to cry inconsolably. The baby may draw his legs towards the stomach or lay them straight to relieve the stomach cramps.
There is nothing much you can do to help. The baby will normally grow out of it, usually after 3 months. It can be very frustrating at times. You can try to massage the stomach. It may help a little bit. You can try to lie him down on his belly and putting a warm towel underneath his belly or a half-filled bottle of warm water can also do.
Colic is not a problem to be worried about. Do consult your doctor to rule out any other causes. If there is no other causes, then you may just have to bear with it for 3 months or so.
