Babies with colic

Hi just wanted to post this, not really a question just more like advice for anyone with little ones suffering with colic or 'the witching hour'
My lb is 2 months and since birth he's started crying each night starting around 6.45pm until the early hours of the morning. This was really bad crying too which freaked me out, I read online it's not uncommon for babies to do this each night starting around a certain time.
After 2 months I've finally found a solution! I bath him in Johnson's bedtime bath and add a little lavender bath oil to his bath (I checked it's safe for babies to use) then I'll get him dressed for bed in sleep suit and I'll swaddle him while feeding him from the tommee tippee anti colic bottles. By now he's usually crying and wailing so badly. After his feed I give him his Wubanub soother while rocking him gently in a quiet dark room and he's out for the night!
I just wanted to share my experience with colic in babies as I know how frightening it can be. I'm a first time mum and I FREAKED OUT!
I hope I can help other people too 😊
