ColicCalm

Mack has been suffering from gassiness/fussiness/slight colic between the hours of about 5pm to 10pm. You can imagine how awesome this is for me and Jon. What's worse is that hinders our social life (and Mack's) as most family gatherings are around dinner/meal time. The only thing that had worked to calm Mack down was constant nursing which is great for him, not so great for me. I read online about many different forms of gripe water and the only one that is FDA recommended is ColicCalm. I ordered it and it is well worth the $25 I spent. It's black so Mack gets a nice little black mouth when he takes it but that's okay. Last night was the first time we tried it and I deem it a success. He was so calm he was able to sleep dead to the world.

Me & Mack - yikes, I'm looking pretty worn out.


Great Uncle Charlie & Mack - This was right when Mack was waking up from a long nap.

For Hadley is was 6pm-10pm. She just cried and cried with out stopping. Seemed like by 6:01 pm she was crying and 9:59 she was asleep. Glad you found something that's working. I never knew what to do besides just walk around, pat her on the back, and wait till' 10! After about 10 weeks she was all good though.
