It is not a serious medical condition and usually resolves by the age of 3-4 months. Colic is usually recognised by bouts of inconsolable crying, often for hours at a time, for no specific reason. For example, your baby is not hungry, overtired, needs a nappy change or has a raised temperature. Colic most commonly occurs in the late afternoon and evening, when your baby might cry out the pain.Despite medical research, no one is certain exactly what causes colic. A likely explanation may be the build up of small bubbles of trapped wind in your baby’s tummy, which causes pain and discomfort.Signs of infant colic: Inconsolable bouts of forceful crying with no apparent trigger. Baby draws knees up to chest Swollen stomach Cramping Passes wind more than usual May get worse in evening IMPORTANT: The following symptoms are NOT associated with colic: Diarrhoea Vomiting Raised Temperature (over 38C) ALWAYS READ THE LABEL.
