To cure colic, feed the baby camomile tea. My son had it bad from the time he was born. Finally my German landlord told me to brew up some tea and give it to him. After a couple of bottles of the stuff his colic was cured forever.
From experience, I can tell you that horseradish is not a favorite of breastfed infants.
My 3 children didn't seem to mind garlic or jalepeno's, but horseradish was where they drew the line on my taste for the strong and spicey.
What a refreshing voice of reason.
Colic is a fascinating subject. Whether it is diet, or the infant is "stressed" due cognitive, physical or emotional growth -- is such a question. I've seen mothers gets so stressed in attempting to halt/mitigate "colic" in their babies, they pass that stress right on to the infant.
Oh, yes.. I do indeed know about colic. Blessings to all parents.
Colic is indeed a fascinating subject. Given the small sample size and short duration I'd be interested in someone with a background in statistics to review the conclusions.
Having said that, anyone who's ever had a colicy baby is usually willing to try almost anything.
Oh, and colic can start sooner than three weeks and last longer than three months. BTDT
