Magic Colic
MAGIC COLIC
Babies that are colicky are healthy, eating well and growing well but cry in spells. Notice if the episodes happen at the same time of day or after the same pattern of events.
If colicky crying is affecting you and your baby, the sequence of massage can help alleviate the symptoms and help soothe the baby and can eventually help them come out of this period.
Massage is the top recommended action to ease the discomforts felt in the belly. If baby is not liking any tummy rubs while crying, you can place the baby on their tummy and rub the back as it will have the similar effect.
Moving gases that are stuck or giving comfort in the abdominal region is your goal. And please remember to move your hand in a clockwise motion – moving down the colon on baby’s left side.
