Infant Colic Help

Oh ! Yah. You heard it right. This is so much common problem. Almost all babies pass through this phase & suffer. As a new mom, we are worried and anxious about our baby ad seeing them cru out loud is unbearable as many times moms also cry when their babies cry loud. We need to understand baby’s body science first. New born baby has very primitive digestive system. It gets improve month by month. New enzymes for digestion also develop slowly and that’s one of main reason for their colic & gas trappings.

 Another reason is.. Initially 3 months babies most of the time sleep, eats and then again sleep. So physical activity is very rare and that’s why gas trapped not able to release &cause colic pain.

After drinking milk it comes act & regurgitates because very primitive structure of oesophagus and stomach. We need to do 10-15 minutes burping after each feed at least till baby learns rolling over & turning side to side. If burping not done properly then also gas colic happens.

During baby massage, before morning bath & before bed time.  If proper exercises and cycling motion not done then also gas trapped inside.

Also giving tummy time is very important that also helps release gas.

Some moms believe in traditional “Ghasara & Ghuti” to their babies & some don’t believe and only rely on modern medicines. If at all you want to give ghasara. Please take care of all hygienic precautions, washing and drying herbs properly is very important.

Gripe water can also be given but it should be without alcohol, no sugar, no extra preservative in it.

Applying ( Hing) asafoetida on tummy helps a lot indeed and its totally safe.

After doing all these natural solutions, some babies still face colic pain & here comes the role of Homeopathy. We have so many good medicines to help relieve colic and improve digestion. It’s safe to give in new born & easy to administer to babies. Homeopathy medicines have helped many babies & moms and you too can get benefitted.

Many babies cry day & night due to colic & homeopathy acts as boon for them and brings back smile on mother’s face.

Please note if baby is on breastfeed then what mothers eat also makes a lot of difference. Please consult me personally for detailed information on this topic and if baby is on formula milk then also they may suffer from colic. Many times colic is cause of other pathological condition like intussusceptions,  lactogen intolerance, pyloric stenosis, acid reflux etc. For that, consult doctor and get your baby examined properly. Keep homeopathy at your hand it will help you.
