calypso Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Just curious ... I was told recently by a doctor that this is a sign of a biologically (genetically) sensitive autonomic nervous system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Interesting comment.Again, just keep in mind that colic is common in the general population and also more frequent in industrialized societies than in non-industrialized societies--so colic probably has multiple causes.If colic is a sign of nervous system dysfunction then this is good news for my daughter since she was completely free of it.

briarrose Posted October 21, 2004 Report Share Posted October 21, 2004 Oh colic is just a another word for irritable bowel syndrome, they had to call it colic because the baby couldn't speak to tell them what is really wrong. (Just kidding but thought I would try my hand at humor!)Only one of my 6 children had colic as a baby, **** for the first 7 months, glad she wasn't first or she would have been the only Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calypso Posted October 23, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2004 Oh well, I guess so far this has proven that polls often mean nothing. Thanks for humoring me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
