Colic or infantile colic is frequent and intense crying in a baby for no apparent reason. It is usually observed in newborn babies within the first six weeks. It can cause frustration for parents because they do not understand the cause of crying, and no remedies seem to help in most cases. Colic occurs naturally in most newborn babies, and it declines over time as they grow over the age of 4 to 5 months. Since colic can be pretty distressing for parents, it is important to understand the possible causes and how to manage them.
