Colic: Facing a baby’smost painful stage
It has been called nightmare but it can get even worse. A baby just won’t stop crying. And the most annoying thing about it is that it happens most at night, when we expect them to be tenderly asleep. Colic is every mother’s dreaded period in babyhood. Unfortunately, it is natural.It is probably the worst pain a baby can experience, usually manifested as an acute abdominal pain with intense spasmodic cramping. However, colicky babies cannot describe what they are going through, leaving parents at guessworks. The causes of colic are unknown but medics suspect that it’s presumed abdominal pain babies have that makes them cry agitatedly.
