If it's colic, my sympathy is truly with you. My daughter was a screaming bundle of joy 24/7 for 4 whole months, and the ONLY thing that we found would work is this stuff called 'bio-gaia'. I'm not sure where you live or if its available in the states, but they sell it here in pharmacies. You usually have to ask, because they keep it behind the counter because it is fairly expensive. We always got ours from the wal-mart pharmacy.
Bio-gaia is a pro biotic mixture which helps baby's digestion, and lessens their stomach discomfort. This stuff was literally a life saver for us, and helped me maintain what little sanity I had. It's great stuff, very expensive, but worth every penny!!!

Make sure you talk with your PED doctor. I thought my daughter was going along the same lines, and it turned out she has gastic reflux. The day after we got meds for her, she never cried like that again and slept completely through the night. All babies are different, but it would be good just to check in with the doctor to make sure nothing else is wrong. Good luck

Thank's for the info. I will have to talk to her doctor about that then to make sure it is just colic.

Hi There,
I might also second the reflux (GERD) possibility and also bring up a possible sensitivity to whatever she may be eating/drinking (breastmilk vs. formula). But certainly, discuss further with your ped. Dr. J
