chamomile is good, but so is fennel tea . . and this is gonna sound crazy, but try changing the position of her bed . . put it on a different wall, maybe there are electromagnetic currents running thru the wall that she's picking up on (couldn't hurt to try????) Other possibility, she might be lactose intolerant, have you thought to change her food???

Ask your pediatrician for a gas reducer ...there are some on the market that break down bubbles in the baby's tummy(Mylicon). Another thing you can do right now is place her on her back and very gently bring her legs up to her chest (with knees bent) to help her expel the gas. After that, if it's not too hot in your home, swaddle her, rock her, hum to her while holding her close to your chest.
It might be more than colic, so you really should have your pediatrician check her out. She could have a condition called GERD, which is pretty common and causes babies to be very uncomfortable.
I hope she feels better. I know how hard it is to have a baby that's crying when you've tried everything you can think of.
Good luck!

I have a 14 yr old and now a 5 week old, both daughters. A newborn's digestive tract contains very few of the enzymes or digestive juices needed to break down food, so processing the proteins in breast milk or formula can lead to painful gas. The act of screaming itself can cause your baby to swallow a lot of air and that, too, leads to gassiness. Other experts believe that long bouts of colicky crying are a physical release for overwhelmed babies whose still-developing nervous system can't process all the new stimuli surrounding them. By the time evening rolls around some babies just can't handle any more sights, sounds, or sensations in their environment and they cry to blow off steam. I use infants Mylicon it seems to help to a degree. I also lay her upsidedown in my hand and rub not pat her back, with a fan in the room blowing on her not directly and shushing sound and softly speaking to her Above all patience!!!!

when you put her down to bed make sure that her head is elavated or you can get a baby swing that's what we did for my baby and she sleeps on it...that helps as well
