When does colic stop?
Parenting FAQs
Colic typically starts around 2-3 weeks of age and usually resolves by the time a baby is 6 months old. However, the duration of colic can vary from baby to baby. It is important to remember that colic is a temporary phase and will eventually pass. While it can be challenging for parents, it is comforting to know that the symptoms of colic usually improve with time. Seeking support from healthcare professionals and implementing soothing techniques can help parents navigate through this period of colic more effectively.
