Colic
Well, on Thursday our pediatrition said he thinks she has colic. I agree, although I was hoping things would improve soon, and now it is more of a 3 month sentencing.
Friday and Saturday had been pretty good days, but then came Sunday. She cried for 10 or 11 hours. Only stopped long enough to eat, and then she'd start right up again.
I know her belly was hurting her, she haden't had a poo diaper in a few days. So we gave her 1/3 of an infant suppository, and she went a little bit. And stopped crying for about 10 minutes. And then right back to screaming.
It is so frustrating, to see such a cute little baby, so miserable, and not be able to do anything about it.
I did cut out milk from my diet, ( although I guess I need to quit eating cheese as well)
and I switched her last night to Lactose free formula. (I am breastfeeding her, and she gets just a little bit, 4 oz or 6 oz. of formula at night.) I was hoping that this would help. But after yseterdays screaming for so long. I don't know if there is anything we can do, or we just have to wait it out.
Swaddling does nothing, it actually makes her mad. Rubbing her tummy doesn't help.
Any suggestions?
