• Give calming herbs a try During colic episodes, give your infant 1/2 cup (118 ml) of a tea made from chamomile, vervain, licorice, fennel, and lemon balm
• Find a new formula Cow’s milk formula may cause colic in some infants; try switching to soy or a hypoallergenic product
• Don’t let your infant “eat” air To prevent babies from swallowing air, feed them in the sitting position and burp them frequently
