Colic Baby-Infant Massage For The Colic Baby


Executive summary about colic baby by Cindy Francis

Colic Baby. The infant massage technique taught in this article is a basic method used to relieve and relax your colic baby.

Put a small amount of oil (baby oil is fine) in your hand and rub them together. With the finger tips of your right hand, stroke the abdomen in a downward motion starting just below the rib cage and stopping just above the pelvic area (next to the belly button on the right hand side) using gentle pressure. Your right side not the baby's right side. Do this several times.

After doing this motion several times we will add an upward movement on the other side of the abdomen turning our "figure 7" into an upside down "figure u". Starting on the left side of the belly button ( just above the pelvic area and stopping just below the rib cage) in an upward movement, then going across above the belly button then down the other side of the belly button in a clockwise direction. Repeat this several times using gentle pressure.

Finish up the massage with some leg movements.


Colic and Your Infant Baby-Really Nothing To Worry about

Executive summary about colic baby by Christain Cullen

Colic Baby is not some unusual disease that you should worry about. After all nonstop crying can be the result of many things not just a colic.

There is actually no known cause of colic. Colic is purportedly a painful gaseous feeling brought on by stomach ache. Colic often occurs in babies who are big and active, especially those who are great eaters and those who grow really well. These babies will usually have colic episodes at specific time of day, often after each meal.

First advice that parents should heed is to not overfeed the child. Sometimes, when babies cry, parents’ first instincts is to feed them, thinking that they are hungry. Foods that are usually avoided are caffeine, cabbage, onions, beans, and other foods that produce gas. Juices may also result to colic so make sure that your juices are diluted with water or better yet, just make them drink pure water when not drinking milk.

Intense emotions may also contribute in starting a colic episode. Parents are then advised to avoid letting their babies see their anxiety, their fear or their tension so as to avoid transferring the emotions to the babies.

Walking the infant can vastly help in alleviating colic.
