Читать книгу Sister Lilian’s Babycare Companion: Complimentary and traditional care - Lilian Paramor - Страница 43

Many parents see a doctor for the first time because Baby is crying and nothing you do seems to soothe the little one. The feared diagnosis of colic is often made, but do not worry, take the following to heart and read about every conceivable solution under the sun in the detailed section on colic in this guide.

•Loud, strident crying at feeding times, with lots of wind, a red face and arms and legs pulled up, is the colic of a frustrated baby. Offer a few courses at each feed, practise non-scheduled feeding and give ColicCare if necessary.

•Constant fretfulness with Baby in apparent pain for large sections of the day is as painful for the mother as it is for the baby, but using the homeopathic remedy Chamomilla Tablets will greatly improve matters.

•If Baby cries at predictable times of the day, hiccups often and possets and passes stools forcefully, give the Sister Lilian tissue salt remedy Mag phos before each feed.

•Should Baby be having a ‘gut reaction’ to Mom’s anxiety, and it seems like colic, try dosing yourself with homeopathic remedy Rescue Emotion to defuse the situation.

•All babies with colic respond well to clockwise abdominal massage with special oils containing chamomile and dill.
