 Understanding Colic in Babies

Colic is a common condition characterized by excessive, unexplained crying in infants, typically starting around 2-3 weeks of age and resolving by 3-4 months.

Symptoms include intense crying spells, often in the evening, despite all efforts to comfort the baby.

The exact cause of colic is unclear, but factors like digestive issues, immature nervous system, or sensitivity to stimuli may contribute.

Managing colic involves soothing techniques like gentle rocking, white noise, or carrying the baby in a sling. It's essential for parents to seek support, stay patient, and consult a pediatrician if concerned about their baby's crying.Sergio Suárez Benítez Hygiene & Healthy Living Parenting Physical Illness & Disease Relationships
