If you had 1 colicky baby

does that mean you have a higher chance for the second to be colicky as well? DH asked me and I have no idea. I hope not!

Re: If you had 1 colicky baby

I think they are linking coliky to allergies and reflux more often rather than a temperment thing, I personally think your chances are higher of having a coliky baby if you've already had one, 2 out of 3 of mine were coliky,my middle child had a sever milk allergy and reflux so she was always being held and often fussy.

Re: If you had 1 colicky baby

My daughter was colic and I just asked my doctor this now that my son is 6 weeks ...and she said they have no idea where it comes from or why and that it has never been linked to genetics! THANK YOU GOD! Chat Icon

Thank you all! I'm hoping that this baby isn't. Just to be selfish and make things a little easier on myself. Chat Icon

Plus I hate hearing them cry. You feel so helpless.

If you hold us all to our answers, you'll have plenty of babysitters to watch him/her if he/she is colicky.Chat Icon

This is what terrifies me about thinking about #2.

I don't know if I could go through that again...
