crying.
for treatment, probiotics are best to eat up all the little nasties in the system. i like neonatogen by genestra 1 mini spoon daily. gripe water is available on shelves but sometimes a teaspoon or two of fennel tea is good enough, also fennel essential oil dropped in a palm of olive oil rubbed from ‘your-left-to-right’ below the rib cage can cause the pain to subside tout de suite. with these remedies AND MORE, there’s definitely cure for colic.
