Understanding Colic

What Causes Colic?

Colic affects up to 25% of newborns and is characterized by excessive crying for more than 3 hours a day, 3 days a week. While the exact cause isn't fully understood, research suggests that spinal misalignments from the birth process can irritate the nervous system, leading to digestive discomfort, gas, and the inability to self-soothe. The trauma of birth—especially difficult or prolonged deliveries—can create subtle spinal stress that affects your baby's comfort.
