Colic From Day 1
i have a two month old baby boy. and ever since day 1 of his birth he has had problems with colic. we went through an entire bottle of mylicon drops and 7 different types of formula and several different kinds of medication. Nothing worked for us. I finally ended up having to take him to a GI specialist who dignosed him with a serious case of colic and she gave him a formula called Elecare. i started giving it to him immediatley and about a week later the screaming had calmed down and his pain was obviously easing up, he was getting alot better. Now he has a bad case of GERD but thanks to the Elecare his colic is almost gone. if you have an infant who has colic and nothing is working, ask his/her pedi. about Elecare. it worked for my son and i'll recommend it to anyone who's infant is in the same situtation mine was in

I have heard good things about "stop-Crying" but as I am all new here, I am going search around for experiences first. (If I can keep up the patience.)

What worked with william was special colic bottles. Also putting william on his tummy and rubbing his back helped loads
Gripe water didnt help one bit, neither did Infacol.
