Colic cure

Baby colic symptoms can disrupt your entire home. A fussy baby is a normal part of parenting, but only occasionally. When an infant stays fussy for days or weeks at a time, parents can feel powerless, and tensions can rise. Mylicon drops often fall short of their claims, and traditional medicine has no other treatment to offer.

Doc Scharenberg has been perfecting his treatment for colic over the past three decades. He can also advise breastfeeding mothers about a temporary diet to quicken the response and healing. Your baby will be feeling better and sleeping better in just 1-2 visits!

Colic comes from the word “colon” and generally is the result of a weak valve between the small intestines and large intestines. If the valve is too weak and does not close properly, digestion repeats itself in the small intestines and gas builds up creating sharp pains.
Typical symptoms of colic:
• Pulling legs to chest
• Screaming and crying continually
• Sleeps for short periods of time
• Will not sleep on back
• Most uncomfortable lying on back
• Wakes from sleep screaming inconsolably
• Constipation
• Hard and distended belly

Babies can begin to exhibit symptoms as early as just a few days old. Infants can be treated as soon as they show signs of colic. If you are breastfeeding your child, certain foods can increase gas and intensify the crying.

Mother’s diet (if breastfeeding) for faster recovery

How to know if you are eating a food that is making it worse? See the suggested list of foods below and follow these helpful tips and in combination with Dr. S’s treatment, the road to recovery should be much quicker.

Many people have some differences in the list of foods that they can eat. The best way to find all your “yes” foods is to go all the way to basics and add one food in at a time. This method is used to find food allergies as well. It is suggested to begin with chicken, turkey (plain) and bread/pasta (plain).

If you are still having issues, read the ingredients of what you are eating. For instance, one patient of mine was eating Honey Nut Cheerios each morning- the nuts are bad. Also, granola bars are hard to find without rice or crushed nuts or cinnamon. You may need to eventually get rid of eggs for a short time also, and watch things like turkey bacon, the smoke seasoning could make it worse. That includes any special seasonings you use to grill or cook with; they usually contain some sort of garlic or dried onions.
Don’t over look the stuff on your sandwich . . . mustard, and pickles could aggravate it and for some even mayonnaise because of the eggs.

This list will be different for everyone, but is a starting place and a way to not give up so fast on breastfeeding. If you are still having trouble, one suggestion that a patient of mine did was pump everything and go formula for one week and see how fast your baby will improve. Then after the baby has improved with the colic treatments, add breast milk back gradually fro the baby, you might not have to cut out as many foods.

Most patients report being able to eat the bulk of the “no” list with the exception of chocolate and caffeine within 2-3 weeks after completion of treatment. Add each item in slowly to see if there is a reaction.

Colic Cure Parent Testimonials

"We started going to Dr. Scharenberg when my daughter, Eden, was 2 weeks old because she had colic. She slept a lot, but anytime she was awake she acted like she was in a lot of pain – grimacing, screaming, and drawing up her legs. We had been referred to Dr. S by some friends who also brought their baby to Dr. S to be treated. He pressed on her tummy to strengthen the valve between the small and large intestine.

Eden started to show improvement after the first treatment. After a few weeks of the treatment she was a different baby. She was content to lie on her back; she smiled and acted happy all the time. She didn’t have crying episodes, and just acted more content all the time. Dr. S is an amazing doctor and really cares about his patients. His colic treatment is a miracle, and I would recommend it to anyone."

 “I brought my daughter, Hannah, to Doc because she seemed to be colicky. Though she didn't scream for hours on end like some babies do, she was definately giving us a run for our money. A friend told me about their success with Dr S and so we decided it was worth a try. He is the nicest man, wonderful with the babies, and helped us tremendously. Hannah responded right away, and the treatments he did made a world of difference, she is so much happier now (so are we!). I was so impressed with Dr S, so enjoyed all he had to teach and I also think his staff is wonderful, that he is now treating me for the headaches I often have. I would definately recommend chiro care to friends and family, because having Dr S treat you is such a blessing and he is such a joy to be around!”

 “Asher started crying off and on all day after his second day home from the hospital when my milk came in. We tried gas drops but they only gave him temporary relief. After two suggestions and a month of torture, I finally went to see Dr. S. He explained colic to me and did his first treatment. Asher slept the whole way home. After only two visits, he was 80% better. Within three weeks, he was sleeping through the night. Since I was nursing, I tightened my diet per Dr. S's instructions and after 2 months could again eat anything I wanted. We continue monthly adjustments to this day and I believe it has helped Asher's constipation, sleeping and kept him from getting any sinus or ear infections so far.

I began adjustments for myself after seeing the vast improvement in Asher. I was very sore and in pain a lot since being pregnant and having the baby. After a few visits I really began to notice an improvement in sleeping and riding in a car or after holding Asher or feeding him. I am also continuing to see the doctor regularly so the next pregnancy will not be so painful.”

“After the first few days of having A.J. home from the hospital, I knew something was not right. He cried all the time and scrunched up his legs. I held him night and day and could not put him down to sleep. Someone at church suggested he might have colic and to go see Dr. S. I luckily have a cousin in Hillsboro , so I packed up for the week and we saw the Doc everyday. By the end of that first week, A.J. was 100% better. Now I know what a contented baby is really like and we both get much better sleep.

After we had our second son Ian, he started crying and fussing all the time just like his brother Noah. So we prepared ourselves for 5 long months of colic thinking that was the only choice we had. Fortunately through some friends we heard about Dr. S and how he helped babies with colic. It was amazing the difference in Ian after a few visits. We are so thankful that we now know about colic treatment and preventative measures.
