Home and natural remedy for colic in babies

Colic in babies  is something that  occurs in new born between when they are born till 4months old.

Colic in babies  can be defined as unexplained crying that occurs once or twice a day in healthy babies, and well fed babies,this kind of crying goes on and on and sometimes last for hours,and this occur daily .

This problem is found often in  roughly about  5 to 25% of babies at some point .

This usually starts when they are 2to 3 weeks old  and usually it  stops by the time they are 4to 6months old,but  it might  not stop at this time in some babies ,it could take longer  in some babies,medical personals  has tried their best to even know  what the cause is but so far no one does know the cause ,but Some of them do say is air trapped in the abdominal cavity that leads to pain  and discomfort,I read somewhere that says babies born by smokers  are really at a high risk to developing colic pains.
