If the baby has colic, you both really have my sympathy, OP. How long has it been?

She's three months old, it's been really bad for about six weeks.

No, almost no spit up and I've had a reflux baby. It's definitely worse at night.

I'm so sorry OP. My mom said I had colic. She said she had to stop herself from throwing me out the window.

If it helps, I was a super easy child & teenager.

My daughter had colic (not associated with reflux) for about the first six months, but it gradually got better around four months. She cried almost all the time and I definitely think I had some undiagnosed PPD as a result. I didn't realize how different the situation could be until my second came along. She wasn't the easiest baby, but it was night and day because she wasn't crying day and night. Especially if this is your first, it's really tough because it feels like forever. I think worst case scenario is six months, but it should start to improve before that. Good luck!

*I meant it started to gradually improve around four months and then after six months I don't think it was present at all.

There's silent reflux. Most definitely could be that.

My child had colic but no reflux. I don't think doctors will do anything if the baby isn't spitting up and is eating well and gaining weight. Colic by itself is a thing. That said, if you are breastfeeding you could cut down on gas producing foods (brussels sprouts and stuff like that) or if you are doing a combo of formula feeding/breastfeeding you could always cut-down on any foods and also change the formula to see if that has a positive effect.

Mine had both colic and reflux. We did baby bicycle legs exercise before every feeding and it was very helpful.

Breast milk is not made from your stomach contents, it’s made from your blood. All the stuff about don’t eat broccoli/Brussels sprouts so your baby won’t be gassy are old wives tales.

+1 this drives me crazy. There is no evidence that what you eat causes infant gas. It's not even scientifically possible.

I was the person who said my first had colic for six months and wrote this. DD’s pediatrician advised this. I had no idea it wasn’t true. I have felt guilty about her colic for years. This makes me feel a lot better.
