Anti Colic Baby Bottles

Infants are prone to many maladies when they are very tender and intestinal colic is one of these. Some doctors actually believe that the abnormal crying has a purpose : it makes parents more aware of the duty of raising a child.

Well, that's how I felt when my baby had colics. I though, hey, that's it, it's just a test. Just to see if I will hang on there when times get really though.

My baby was a textbook colicky baby. She started at 3 weeks old to kick and srceam her head of for hours on and stopped around 3 months. And I tried a lot of different things to help her out. I tried and Googled every little thing that said "anti colic" and "to calm baby" on them : little necklaces, little drops, herbs...  some Mexican friends even told me to use cabbage leaves and rub them on my baby's butt...

And yes, I Googled and tried anti colic baby bottles.

It's hard for parents to be told that colics are normal...

What Is An Anti Colic Baby Bottle Anyway ?

You do not want your baby to swallow air will he is drinking.

Anti colic baby bottles are designed to reduce the intake of air will they are sucking for the milk. Some bottle are just curved, so the angle is better for feeding, but some bottles have internal vents or disposable linners. You want a bottle that will prevent air bubbles from forming in the milk.

Other little bottle feeding tips :

  • Always feed the baby in a calm environment. You should know that babies don't like complete silence though... you can put music while you are feeding, but not too much moving around him
  • don't wait till the baby is too hungry.
  • take brakes to burp the baby. A baby that drinks a bottle needs to be burped more often then when breast feeding.
  • look into changing the formula, or adding herbs to the milk ( fennel, anise, chamomile)

This DVD changed everything for me. I wished I had it before my baby was born, so I could apply the techniques right away.
