How Often Should My Baby Be Seen for Colic Support?
The ideal frequency of visits depends on your baby’s age, the severity of colic symptoms, feeding patterns, and your family’s needs. Whether you’re looking for relief during peak crying periods or long-term support to improve sleep and digestion, your care provider will create a schedule that works for your baby and your lifestyle.​
​
For most families, we recommend:
​
-
Every 1–2 weeks during the first 1–2 months, especially if colic symptoms are intense, feeding is difficult, or you're feeling overwhelmed.
-
After initial improvements, virtual sessions may continue biweekly or shift to monthly check-ins as your baby becomes more settled and routines fall into place.
-
Once colic is under control, occasional maintenance visits every 3–6 months can help monitor your baby’s digestion, growth, and overall well-being.
At key stages, more frequent support may be helpful:
​
-
Adjusting feeding techniques or switching formula
-
Introducing soothing routines or sleep strategies
-
Coping with persistent crying or tummy discomfort
-
Supporting your own emotional wellbeing as a parent
