An old country doctor told me to melt a peppermint life saver in 4 oz. of water and let it cool. Then feed to baby. I have raised three kids and grandchildren on this and have never had a problem with colic. It really works.

That doesn't surprise me....peppermint was an old home remedy for upset tummies.

lysie, did you know that Wayne Co., NY., was the peppermint capital of the world 150 years ago??:-))

That sounds like a good (and cheap) remedy. Will try that, thanks!
