What can be taken for colic?

If you know our brand, you already know that this is a trick question. Because the answer is: NOTHING.

Our newborns are so small when they suffer from colic that they cannot drink anything but milk.

You may be told that it is good to drink anise infusion, but keep in mind that it has been shown to be very dangerous. Anise can be toxic to newborns. At the end of this article we will include a link to a specific article that explains the reason for the toxicity of anise and the study that proves it.

There are also some powders that are prepared from herbs, but they are not advisable for newborns either. The reason? It is mostly a placebo for parents, as these infunctions are mostly sugar. And sugar doesn't help decrease colic.

So, if it is not advisable to take any type of infusion or preparation, what do we do?

The first thing is to treat colic for what it is. It may be a digestive discomfort, but it is most likely an "emotional discomfort." Offer contact and enjoy your little one's hugs. The more arm he has, the less he will cry. And don't worry about getting used to it. Because, there is no little one who wants to continue being in the arms of their parents when they grow up (unfortunately ... hehe).

The Kusi Wawa method is very effective because in a totally natural and non-intrusive way it allows you to reduce intestinal pain and offers the contact that you need.

Then there are other actions that you can take to help reduce the intensity of colic, such as, for example, performing massages, going to a child physiotherapist, etc.

Also, if you breastfeed, you run the risk of being accused of "passing gas" to your child based on what you eat. Be careful with this, because most of the time it is not justified. We will include an article talking about this below.
