Colic - Relief methods for children with colic

Give your child a pacifier. Sometimes this method works, because sucking is soothing and pleasant for children. Attention but do not use this strategy in all situations where the child cries, instead of looking uncomfortable. A walk in the stroller can also be useful.
Put baby belly down on your knees or on a hot water bottle wrapped in a towel (or cooled to a temperature checked on the inside). Baby back massage to reduce the pressure accumulated in the stomach.
Take the baby, talk to him or swing it. Although not always easy to swing a child screaming, sometimes he calms down only after a touch and is important even try to console him.
Wear your baby in your arms. Some colicky babies love to be always on the move. If this is the case with your child, buy a baby harbor and walk after your baby while you take care of your affairsTry to change the atmosphere. You can walk out with children - clean air and movement can help you fall asleep.
Keep a diary to note all the signals sent by the child and how you reacted to calm. You may notice a pattern. If your baby begins to cry immediately before bedtime, and you swing it to sleep, it is possible that the movement was too strong to disturb him. Try to put it in bed it seems tired.
Nurse it correctly. As more air swallowed during feeding, the more will have more problems. If artificial breastfeeding, it is important to find a suitable bottle. Teats should not be too small (as would be frustrated by the small amount of milk flowing and would try to sip more), but not too big (it would suck too much milk). Some bottles are specially designed to prevent colic reducing air swallowing. Anticoli bottles have a curved shape and internal valves to prevent air bubbles inside the liquid.
Remedies. Some parents treat their children with natural remedies and medicinal teas weak fennel (Foeniculum), aniseed, chamomile. As in the case of a drug, you have to always watch your dosage, or consult a pediatrician.
Administration drops against gases. Search for a product to be as active ingredient simethicone and sure to be created especially for children. As in the case of a medication, consult your doctor first.
If hungry child will eat more quickly swallowing air. Do not expect your baby to cry from hunger before you breastfeed.
Create a calm and quiet environment while breastfeeding - away from direct light and noise.
