What is colic in infants?

Hva er kolikk hos spedbarn?

Colic is a condition that affects many infants in the first months of life. It is characterized by intense and persistent crying without a clear reason, often at the same time every day. For parents, this can be a very challenging and emotionally taxing period, as it can be difficult to comfort the child and understand what is causing the discomfort.

Unknown causes of colic

Despite extensive research, the causes of colic are still not fully understood. Many people have traditionally believed that colic is caused by flatulence or digestive problems. This has led to parents trying different methods such as abdominal massage, changes in the diet or the use of various remedies to relieve the child's discomfort.

The role of the nervous system

Newer theories suggest that colic may be related to the immaturity of the child's nervous system. Infants have a nervous system that is still developing, and they can be extra sensitive to external stimuli such as sound, light and touch. This hypersensitivity can lead to overstimulation, resulting in crying spells and restlessness.

Symptoms of colic

  • Intense and persistent crying for more than three hours a day, at least three days a week.
  • Crying that often occurs at the same time every day, usually in the afternoon or evening.
  • The child pulls its legs up towards its stomach, clenches its fists and generally seems restless.

    How can Colic Button® help?

    Colic Button® uses a specially designed sound pattern based on safe, natural sound therapy that mimics the soothing sounds of the mother's womb. When a baby with colic is fussy or crying, the Colic Button® is activated with a simple push, and the sounds quickly help calm the baby. The combination of white and pink noise creates a relaxing atmosphere, which provides immediate relief without the use of drugs or radiation. This gives both the baby and the parents peace of mind and better sleep.

    Why does sound therapy work?

    Sounds have long been used to soothe infants. During pregnancy, the baby is surrounded by sounds from the mother's body, such as heartbeat and blood flow. These rhythmic and constant sounds create a sense of security. Colic Button® mimics these natural sounds, which can help regulate your child's nervous system and reduce overstimulation.
