Brown Univerity Colic clinic reveal a trend in colicky babies.

To figure out how to fix the problems, they tackle them starting with feeding & gastric problems, then sleep,
I too think it is important to tackle the feeding and gastric issue first, as this is a medical problem. By first addressing feeding, and there is no improvement, you can go on to more serious afflictions such as food allergies and GER.

Earlier this year a mom brought her 3-month old son to my office with colic. He did not respond at all to any medical treatment he received. One chiropractic adjustment to his C1 vertebra was all it took to relieve his colic completely. Chiropractic does INDEED help children with colic. Here are actual studies that have been done to show this: http://www.icpa4kids.org/research/chiropractic/...
Good to know, thanks Dr Suglia, could it be related to the fact that at 3 months normally colic goes away by itself?
