    have you tried rubbing her tummy in a clockwise direction while she is lying in her cot. When I am trying to resettle my son and I think he has wind I just leaving him in his cot but rub his tummy and sssh him at the same time. The reason you always go in a clockwise direction is because the intestines run that way. If you go the other way you may cause her to become blocked up. There is also the gentle riding the bike movements with her legs. Good luck. We used infants friend and that also seemed to help

    I found Brauer's colic relief great - actually worked on both ends

    Oh man Katriona I hope that's the case for us - we got given some for Riv but never needed it, but I've had to pull it out for Si - he's almost due for his second dose and I'm PRAYING it makes a difference - I didn't get to bed til 3:30 last night...

    Did you follow the instructions exactly? A dose every half hour 4 times?

    His head is slightly elevated...(a towel under the head of the cradle mattress) perhaps I should raise it a bit more? He's not so much burpy as farty though...
