Hi,

My sis had 2 colici babies, and found that a wheat pack heated in the microwave helped if they coudn't get any burps out and the bubs was in pain. just held on the tummy or back I think.

But we have had success with sitting bubs on knee and supporting head with one hand and using other hand to support back with gentle pressure to correct his posture to allow any wind to come out. But sometimes he just won't burp at all.

I have to admit I was told I didn't need to pat or rub, but I do, 'cause i know that if I was having wind related tummy pains I would like to be rubbed.
