i have a baby girl. she is four months old. when she was 12 days old she started paying and crying all night long for two months. It was a very difficult period. The only thing that helped and calmed her was the extractor fan. she was sleeping when the extractor fan was on. We tried everything, only this helped us.
It's usual for babies having this tummy ache, some babies are lucky and don't pain for a long time some not.
Did you have the same problem ? What did you done in order to help your angel?

Yes of course... instead of being rude you could just ask what I mean.
Well, what I mean is this: Manousina said "The only thing that helped and calmed her was the extractor fan. she was sleeping when the extractor fan was on." and my question is that putting on the extractor fan is not something easy to think of and of course I couldn't believe that it could work. So how did she think to put it on?

It sounds like colic.
I used a medicine called Infacol that helped with my children.
Colic is a very common condition and it affects around 1 in 5 of babies.
The symptoms of colic usually begin within the first few weeks of their life, and usually go by the time the baby is four months of age, and by six months at the latest.
The cause (or causes) of colic is unknown.

My daughter had a similar problem only it was far worse. She had bleeding rashes on her rear at the same time and I repeatedly took her to the Doctor. She was diagnosed with Colic and no matter how often I argued the doctors refused to look further into the matter then that. Finally after several months and my being ready to curl up and die from the pain of having her in so much agony I found a doctor who found the problem, she was lactose intolerant.
I did a lot of research during that time and discovered that while many children do suffer from Colic during the early stages the Colic itself is merely a symptom of another underlying problem. I think the best thing to do is find and maintain a really good doctor and work with them to discover what it is exactly that is causing your child's colic.
