Good evening mom's my 6 week old baby boy has colic and screams 24/7 and today has been a really rough day we were out in public and everyone kept staring and looking at me like I'm a bad mom because I couldn't get him to quit screaming this is my first child and sometimes it just breaks my heart that no matter what I do I can't soothe my baby I Kno it's not my fault and he will outgrow this phase but it's so tough right now any advice on anything I can do from any of you ladies that have been in my shoes I just want to cry with him sometimes 😥??

@ana_1 we just switched to Similac Alimentum and it seems to be doing the trick I feel like I have such a happier baby now thank God because it was rough in the beginning
Is he pooing regularly or constantly gassy? Try probiotic drops and burp every single feeding. Check with doctor and make sure he doesn't have acid reflux too. The first month was the hardest for me. I feel for you!
If you’re formula feeding switch to gentle formula it changed everything for us
I have no advice about the colic but ignore people looking at you! You’re not a bad mum, babies cry, anyone who feels the need to stare and make you feel bad should be ashamed!
Oh and what @jaskeana said! They work wonders
My doctor and a few other moms had suggested gripe water. My son was already 2 months though so maybe double check. It seemed to really help. I used the nighttime (mommysbliss brand) they also have the original if you don’t need the night time it’s more for them when they’re so colicky they can’t sleep. Also helps with gas, hiccups, teething, etc.
Maybe try laying him on you in the bath tub that way he has skin to skin time
@futureme123, yea that’s a do the trick! my mom wanted my baby to use that! But the doctor gave us soothe for now but it’s seeming to work out if not that’s what we would switch her to next
