The Magic of Anti-Colic

Daniel is 7 weeks now. He is feeling much better after administering 6 doses (maximum dose) of Dentinox (anti colic drop). Dr Chandlier instructed that Daniel is to be given 6 doses for 2 days, followed by 3 or 4 doses. We have to feed him 2 hourly of 2 1/2 oz instead of 3 hourly feed of 3 1/2 - 4 oz. After one week of severe colic and not been able to sleep well, Irene by now is like a Zombie. Only last night she had some sleep as baby is sleeping much better. However, we have to let baby sleep on his stomach against the advise of many midwives. Research has also revealed that SID is more prone due to this. To avoid this, Irene, mom and dad take turn to watch baby. We watch him like a hawk. Sis did not participate as she is preparing for he mid term assessment. By this morning, Daniel is able to turn his head from left to right without much problem.
