Try a different type of bottle. Dr. Brown and Parent's Choice bottles (Walmart's Brand) are a good brand. Try a different type of formula (with the doctors OK). Make sure you burp your baby well. Try haveing your baby sit upright when eating and about 30 minutes after eating.

We have 2 months old. He also had very bad colic, the only thing that made it better was Gripe Water, we bought it from Whole foods store. You have to keep it in the fridge, just warm it up a little before giving it to the baby. I just fill up the syringe, put it in warm water and give it to the baby in about 3-4 minutes. We did not give it to him directly from the syringe because he chocked once. You can just pour it in a nipple with a hole.
Good luck!

I would give my babies Similac Alimentum, it's made to relief colic symptoms. It stinks but it works. Use it with Dr. Brown. Don't lay the baby on her back cause it just hurts her more, lay her on her tummy, or you can rock her sideways against your stomach/chest, your warmth will probably soothe her. Good luck and I hope she feels better soon.

You could give baby gentle excercises to expel colic by gently pushing its knees against its tummy. Or by gently massaging its tummy.

You may need a prescription though

dont ever use Karo syrup, that stuff is full of bacteria that could harm your kid.

have the doc change the formula and in the meantime, try the football hold and rock her slowly
