22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 22. Stick to a routine

You'll want to feed your baby whenever he's hungry, but otherwise he might find some comfort in a set routine — baths, walks, naps at certain dependable times. Your baby isn't watching the clock, of course, but he does carry a sense of the rhythm of his days.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 21. Offer a pacifier

Anything that helps your baby calm down is priceless right now. For some babies, sucking is the ultimate soother. So you might want to try offering a pacifier, even if you ordinarily wouldn't. Or encourage your baby to suck on his finger by gently putting it in his mouth.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 20. Bathe your baby

A warm bath in the middle of your baby's colic time might distract and relax him enough to help. Some babies also love to be held in the shower, with the spray on their back. Your baby may enjoy the rhythmic beating of the warm water as well as the sound.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 19. Scent the environment

Some babies respond well to scent. Aromatherapists develop specific essential oil formulas for a variety of problems and conditions, from headaches and fatigue to anxiety and fear.

You might try one developed for calming and soothing nervousness. (Some are made specifically to help calm babies.) A spritz of chamomile in the bedroom or a lavender-scented bath might also do the trick (if not for your baby, then for you)

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 18. Swaddle

Think about how snug your baby was before his birth, and you'll have a good idea how wide the world seems to him right now. Swaddling — an ancient method of wrapping your infant in a blanket or cloth — can help a baby feel less out of control. You can try swaddling your baby during feedings if he has trouble focusing on his meal, or wrap him up before his usual colicky period or before you put him down to sleep.

Not only might swaddling help your colicky baby get to sleep, there's a good chance it will help him stay asleep, too. Researchers have found that babies who are swaddled sleep more soundly than those who aren't. That's because when a baby twitches during sleep, his own movements can wake him up. Swaddling keeps that little twitch from becoming a full-fledged flail he's unlikely to sleep through.

The swaddling technique is easy to master. Once you find that your baby loves to be swaddled, you may even want to invest in a special swaddling bunting.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 17. Hush!

While some babies are comforted by motion, noise, and activity, others need less stimulation and respond better to quiet, stillness, and darkness.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 16. Try a different atmosphere

If you've been indoors, it may help to take your baby out for a walk, either in the stroller, a sling, or a front pack. The new sights, sounds, and smells may distract him, and the fresh air and rhythmic movement of walking may calm him and allow him to fall asleep. On the other hand, if you've been out and about with your baby all morning, some quiet time at home might be just what he needs.

This is the 1st time my 2y 6m old son using CD. I just received this KS 4th Gen One Size Organic Bamboo Cloth Diaper a few days ago. After I wash the CD twice and put on my son during bedtime, I was amazed that it can last up to 10hr dryness and without leakage. No more wake up in the middle of the night to change the CD like disposable do. Money worth buying, eco-friendly and very quality product. I will definitely use this CD to my 2nd baby soon after delivery. TYVM KS.

KS 4th Gen One Size Hybrid Cloth Diaper(CD) was introduced at right timing as the CD market is venturing into eco-friendly elements. The new hybrid cloth diaper is softer and gentle on the skin. It's more breathable. Moreover, it has attractive colour ranges and the most is, the price is still among the cheapest in the market. Congratulations for having sense of innovation to benefit the users. I will definitely recommend KS 4th Gen One Size Hybrid Cloth Diaper to others.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 14. Do the baby bicycle

Put your baby on his back hold his feet and gently move his legs in a bicycling motion several times a day.(Diaper changes are a good time to try it.) For some babies this relieves gas and other tummy discomforts.

22 strategies for soothing a colicky baby ~ 13. Move it.

Babies are comforted by gentle motion of all kinds, so invest in a rocker, baby swing, or simple bouncer. Your baby might also find it soothing to be walked around the house in a front pack or sling. Keep in mind that he may prefer being held higher in the pack, close to your chest and your heartbeat. Try gently bouncing up and down in this position while hugging your baby close.
