Hi there.  Colic is a term used for babies that are hard to soothe.  They seem uncomfortable often and cry a lot.  Some feel it could be due to extra gas and GI issues with the baby and some feel it could be due to a neurological discomfort.  The second one was the case for one of my sons.  We had to walk him around the house for about an hour every evening for about 2 hours because if we did not, he cried like he was in horrible pain.  My husband and I took turns.  usually babies grow out of it but those same babies turn into sensitive toddlers.  My son's colic was on the very mild side but it can be hard to deal with although not uncommon.

It means ur baby is super gassy and has alot if air bubbles in their tummy. Usually causes for quite a fussy baby.  if your baby is colic it will just go away eventually no matter what type of bottles you use... unfortunately
