  yes have to know what you are doing

i never had to deal with this. i feel sorry for the babies and parents that do

I was a colic baby. My Dad was very good at finding the lump in my belly and he found if it pushed on it very gently with one finger it helped me to get rid of it.

I was taught stroking from the bum all the way up to the neck in one soft smooth movement and repeating that over and over
oh and NEVER rubbing downwards.

  I wasn’t aware of that either.

it is a hard time my little boy had it and you are willing to give anything a go

We used these techniques with our first son, who had terrible wind pain, and it really helped!

Thanks for sharing this very helpful article.

I’ll guarantee my Mum would have welcomed this advice when I was a colic baby for quite a few months. Sometimes in desperation my Mum would give me another feed, I would burp and be sound asleep within 10 minutes. Apparently if I passed wind anybody holding whilst sitting on a chair could feel it through my nappy.

I used these techniques & they did help my kids

I found nothing including massage helped with my babies colic.

massage is an excellent way to get in touch with your baby
baby oil and gentle strokes after bath, or at times when pain is apparent do move the body gently to release lactic acid and pockets of air. Massage is good for everyone so get your share

My bubs just loved massages, and I loved giving them :). Unfortunately even though it brought them comfort I ended up changing my diet to give them relief from their colic.

Some tips that really work here, I had a baby that only a tummy rub would help with the colic stage

Helpful article for those moms with colicky bubs. thanx.

This is a great article and I think it would work well. None of my bubs had colic so I was very fortunate. But I do feel for the mums that experience this with their bubs.

My mum taught me to rub baby’s belly and to move her legs in a ‘riding bike’ motion to help with colic.
