Ep.40: Is It Really Just Colic? When Crying Means Something.

jeudi 26 juin 2025 • Durée 14:01

In this episode, Kaili dives deep into the topic of “colic” and what it really means when your baby is crying inconsolably. She challenges the catchall label of colic, encouraging parents to trust their instincts and look beyond the surface for possible root causes.

Key Topics Covered:

[01:12] What “colic” actually means and why it’s often just a label, not an explanation.

[03:10] The importance of trusting your parental intuition when something feels off with your baby.

[04:28] Common root causes of excessive crying in babies, including:

Nervous system sensitivity and sensory overload
Emotional processing from birth or in utero experiences
Digestive issues (food intolerances, gut health, reflux, etc.)
Body tension and compression from birth or positioning
Oral dysfunction and feeding challenges
Practical steps for parents:

[09:37] What Parents Can Do

Trust your gut and observe patterns in your baby’s behaviour
Consider holistic support options like craniosacral therapy, osteopathy, or pediatric OT
Focus on co-regulation—your calm helps your baby’s calm
Seek support when needed; you don’t have to do it alone

Resources Mentioned:

Takeaway Message:
You know your baby best. Colic is not the end of the story—it’s a signal. With the right support and clarity, you and your baby can find your rhythm again. Trust yourself, trust your baby, and remember: you’re doing an incredible job.
