Hello, I'm really struggling at the moment to help my DD with what I suspect is colic. (Crying and upset from 4.00pm each evening where very little seems to settle her/console her) She is nearly 10 weeks old and is back at home recovering from major heart surgery which she had at nearly 7 weeks. She is exclusively BF, though she is having 1ml of calagen 4 x a day, a high fat supplement to aid weight gain. Anyway, it is only a few days after we got home that she has appeared to start suffering from the colic. I was just wandering if this was an age related thing or could it be my diet? The week after the op in hospital when I was eating ready meals she appeared to be very calm (but perhaps this was her coming off the drugs). Since I have got home and started eating healthily again, my veggie diet means lots of lentils, the colicky symptoms seem to have come on full force!
It's really getting us all down, she has had such a rough few weeks I would love to ease this for her!
