Re: help ! how to deal with baby crying

Nope. I was asking what technique you used in the end, i.e. was it that your baby had bad cholic or was attention seeking because your husband was away a lot, and how did you eventually get it to stop crying?

For us, we did the following:
1) infant formula with (weak) fenel tea
2) flatulex
3) vigorous burping (babies, not us)
4) moderate leaving the baby to cry (my wife was soft and I'm an uncaring barsteward)

We noticed a lot of differences between our three children re how they drank their milk vs. much crying they did, i.e. in our case it was mostly wind related.
