Managing colic and constipation in babies

If you suspect your baby has either colic or constipation, the first thing to do is to speak to your healthcare professional as there are often ways to relieve symptoms without changing your baby's feed. If advised by your healthcare professional, you may want to consider Aptamil Comfort; a food for special medical purposes, formulated for the dietary management of colic and constipation in babies who are being bottlefed.

Signs of colic

  • 2–3 hour spells of loud crying, often 15 minutes after feeding. As a guide, colic usually involves repeated excessive and inconsolable crying which lasts for 3 hours or more a day, on at least 3 days a week, for more than 3 weeks. Crying is often high-pitched and frantic and happens more in the late afternoon and evening.
  • Flushed face
  • Clenched fists
  • Legs pulled up to the chest

  • Colic can occur any time in the first few weeks after birth but usually disappears by the time your baby is 3 months old.

    Signs of constipation

  • Fewer bowel movements or your baby may pass unusually small or large, hard stools with difficulty
  • It's normal for babies to appear to strain when trying to poo, but if it seems like a real struggle and they cry then it might be constipation
  • Reduced appetite

  • Constipation in babies may be caused by a change of diet, dehydration or a minor illness. Bottlefed babies tend to have firmer, darker stools than breastfed babies and are more likely to suffer from constipation.

    When to use Aptamil Comfort

    Aptamil Comfort is suitable from birth onwards. As it is a nutritionally complete formula, your baby can stay on Aptamil Comfort until they are 12 months old. If your baby has been diagnosed with colic or constipation by a doctor, switching to Aptamil Comfort can be done quickly to allow them to benefit from its gentler formula as soon as possible.

    You may wish to switch to a standard infant milk, suitable for your baby’s stage, once their digestive system has had a chance to mature. When switching to a standard milk, it is advisable to do so gradually and keep an eye out for any cases of discomfort. If you have any concerns, speak to your healthcare professional.

    Benefits of Aptamil Comfort

    Aptamil Comfort is nutritionally tailored with a unique blend of GOS/FOS prebiotics helping to soften stools. It also contains nucleotides and antioxidants, and has milk proteins which have been partially broken down (partially hydrolysed) to make them much gentler on your baby’s digestive system.

    Aptamil Comfort now also contains long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPs) from the omega-3 and omega-6 groups, which means that bottlefed babies suffering from colic and constipation can get the benefits of LCPs right up to the age of one year.

    Changes you might notice

    Aptamil Comfort may affect your baby differently to other milks you have used. For instance, after you first start using it, you might notice your baby has increased wind and/or stools that are loose and greenish in colour. These effects are harmless and are a sign that your baby’s digestive system is getting used to the milk.

    Please note:
    Due to Aptamil Comfort being slightly thicker than other milks, either a variable flow teat or a single hole teat with a medium or fast flow should be used when feeding your baby.
