Colic Calm - who has used it?

We're thinking about buying Colic Calm for DS. He doesn't really sleep during the day...I might get one nap out of him and it lasts for a maximum of two hours. He is really fussy, continuously needs to be held/rocked, has a lot of gas, throws his shoulders back like he's in pain, cries when he's eating sometimes, and has been spitting up the past few days. All the classic signs (says Dr.Google) of reflux. I'm hesitant to give him something like Zantac (he has an appointment Tuesday for a well baby check up), so I thought we'd try this "homeopathic" method first.

Have you used it? Did it work? Thoughts?

  • We used Colic Calm last night worked great! If you watch the video on CC's website, it says why it is better than gripe water though obviously that is their marketing piece I know lots of ppl use gripe water.

  • I tried the Colic Calm with DD1 and it didn't help at all. It also turned her lips black, stained her clothes, etc. IMO its not worth it. I've had better success with the gripe water.

  • The gas drops are working for us. My niece nothing worked but holding and Rocking her. Good luck severe colic is so tough!!!
  • We've tried Colic Calm, Hyland's colic tablets, and mylicon gas drops.  Honestly, I don't think any of them worked wonders.  The colic calm might have helped somewhat, but I'm not entirely sure--it definitely wasn't an instant miracle like the online reviews claimed.  Like the PP said, it's black and messy, so I'm not a huge fan....plus the $20 price tag isn't great.

    Colic stinks.  That is all.

    Good luck!!
