baby with colic

I have a 7 week old with terrible colic.  I'm looking for tips.  Also wondering if there is some kind of miracle pacifier.  He won't use one, but will suck on my little finger.  Anyone make molds of fingers?

Is he breast or formula feed? If breast - eliminate ALL dairy from your diet - no cheese, milk, ice cream or yogart ect. If formula - try alimentum or nutramigen. My son did better on nutramigen. Also - check with dr for reflux. Zantac or pepcid will help and cannot cause future damage. Again, pepcid worked better for my son.
