LO1 screamed for weeks. Nothing made her happy. Sometimes DH and I just look at LO2 and laugh at how easy he is in comparison. I had to hold LO2 all day and all night for 8 weeks and nurse 12-16x a day. He wasn't exactly easy by most people's definition but at least I could soothe him which I never could with LO1. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377536 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 21:24:56 +0000 autumn865 2377536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd1 no, DD2 yes... Nothing worked. The only thing you could do was just bear it. It was a long 3.5 months then she was a frequent grump for another 3. Now she's happy as a clam though at 10 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377438 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 20:02:57 +0000 keepcalmcarrie 2377438@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, both. Worse with the first, but I think had I not had the tricks up my sleeve for the second (white noise, Baby K'tan, and a knowledge that it would end) it would have been even harder with him. First had a cow's milk protein allergy and a soy intolerance, second had MSPI. I pray that any future babies don't have these issues. Colic sucks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377393 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 19:22:41 +0000 regberadaisy 2377393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, both were brutal. #1 was way worse than 2. Swaddling and the 5s were a joke and utterly useless in my house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377389 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 19:20:54 +0000 gingerbebe 2377389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Worst 3.5 months of my life, and I went through brain surgery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377344 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 18:12:30 +0000 sapphire 2377344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thankfully no! We had our issues but fussiness wasn't really one of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377330 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 17:55:06 +0000 cascademom 2377330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just one of ours had colic: our first. Harvey Karp's book really helped us through it. Our second kiddo already had the 5 S's going on when he seemed to be reaching the witching hour. Our second also has no problem farting. LO #1's colic was around gas issues too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2377211 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 16:05:47 +0000 erinpye 2377211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, both. It was not a fun time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2376988 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:24:19 +0000 snowjewelz 2376988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Very thankfully no, but it wasn't like it was a breeze either! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-your-lo-have-colic#post-2376952 Thu, 03 Dec 2015 14:12:25 +0000 mrsjyw 2376952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Was your LO colicky? Was it the same for all babies? </p> <p>Just curious for a friend who was asking what the "stats" are when it comes to newborns with colic and figured I'd poll my lil circle of HB mamas. </p>
