One Mom's Story: Heather and kiddos Chloe and Lucas

One Mom's Story: Heather and kiddos Chloe and Lucas

I first learned that Heather used Colic Calm as a result of her writing a comment on Colic Calm's Facebook page. She had written about how excited she was that Colic Calm was available at CVS--she used it previously for her other child, and needed it again. Little did I know that these kids were two of seven! An obvious veteran to the mothering thing, I was eager to hear how Colic Calm helped Heather. --Alex Heather first heard of Colic Calm after she gave birth to Chloe--her sixth child. Chloe was prescribed Zantac, but Heather and her husband believe in trying natural remedies first, so Heather scoured the internet until she came to the Colic Calm site. She had given her twins "gripe water" in the past, so she was familiar with what it was, though she had never used Colic Calm. After reading every last bit of detail on the Colic Calm site, she "took the dive" and ordered a bottle. And it worked. It helped Chloe out tremendously, so when Heather's seventh child, Lucas was born, she was ready. As Heather says, "This time, with my son, Lucas I immediately knew I was going to resort to

Colic Calm. I actually received a bottle as a gift when I was pregnant with him just in case. I tend to have gassy babies who also suffer from reflux so I wanted to be prepared." Heather gave Lucas his first dose of Colic Calm when he was four weeks old. It helped him so much, that when she ran out of the bottle she didn't replace it--Heather had thought he had grown out of his gassy/reflux stage. Unfortunately, she was wrong. Heather tells what happened, "I stopped using Colic Calm when I ran out. Luke was such a calm happy baby at that point that I thought he might already had been over his spitting up and painful gas. Shortly thereafter his painful gas returned and he began crying- sometimes for hours at a time. He wouldn’t nurse and nothing seemed to work to make him happy. I tried all the tricks I could think of and tried to make him feel better until I realized I needed to order another bottle. When I got online myself and realized it was now available at CVS, I immediately called them up and asked if they had it in stock. I literally came up out of my seat, excited with the knowledge that they carried it and had it in stock. I drove there and bought two bottles right away. A few minutes I came back home and administered it to my fussy little guy and he settled down, and fell asleep. Shortly thereafter he had a bowel movement which was great because he had been suffering with painful constipation that was only being relieved with a little prune juice. Since he has been taking Colic Calm regularly, he has also began having regular bowel movements again." Today, Lucas is eleven weeks old and Heather administers Colic Calm to him daily. She says, "I give it to him before I nurse him. He is currently cluster feeding through the night, so I will re-administer again midway through the night when I change him to proactively prevent painful gas and excessive spit up." And lastly, Heather adds, "I gave some to Chloe- now 18 months old yesterday to help relieve some gas she was experiencing and it helped her within just a few minutes. I wish I had Colic Calm for my previous children- to think of all the sleepless nights I could have prevented! I tell my girlfriends to use Colic Calm for their babies and plan to give it as a shower gift to a friend with her new baby due next month. I can truly say this is one “Must Have” product for all new Moms." Are you a Colic Calm user and would like to share your story? Just let us know by leaving a comment below and we’ll be in touch!
