Colic refers to the excessive crying in babies for a certain period during the day, week or month. A colicky baby is difficult to manage as even the parents get scared seeing their little one in pain.Though the reasons given are many, there is no scientific reason proved for colic in babies. Gas formation, immature digestive system, allergies, lactose intolerance are all considered to be the valid reasons for colic in babies.Some medical experts point out the improper bottle feeding as a main reason for colic. As the air flow inside the conventional feeding bottles are not balanced, babies ingest a lot of air along with the milk causing flatulence, gas, bloating, ear infection or excessive spit ups.When the Reebaby team contacted me for the review of their anti colic bottle, I really wanted it reviewed by a real mother with a colicky baby.
