What colic is and what it is not?


Colic is a vague description (loosely linked to a bundle of physical complaints) of unsettled behavior in the early months of a baby's life. Colic is not an outcome of urban times. It is certainly not a disease. Colic rarely has an identifiable physical cause (if it did, it will become much easier to deal with and treat). The many symptoms associated with colic has rendered it as a non-existent condition in the minds of some medical experts, while for many others it becomes an easy way out to simply band the package of complaints as colic.





Further, they estimate that 90% of cases go misdiagnosed anyway. Unlike other forms of crying, not only is the infant's ordeal a prolonged one but it is also an inconsolable one. Colic is common in babies under 3 months and it mostly disappears by the 4th month. Bouts of colic affects both bottle-fed and breast-fed babies alike. Babies in other cultures suffer from it too.
