Baby colic

When your baby is uncomfortable with cramps, your baby may be suffering from colic. What to do if your baby has colic? You can try the following methods:

2. You can use a bath towel to warm your baby, wrap him/her up and make him/her feel comfortable.

3. You can put him in a cradle or a stroller.

4. You can use the pocket on the back of the baby to take a long walk with your baby, or you can just hold the baby directly.

5. You can massage your baby's abdomen.

6. You can place a bottle of warm water on your baby’s belly.

8. Let your baby drink milk. Close contact can also help soothe your baby. If there is still no improvement, or if it relapses, you must see a doctor for a detailed examination.
