Formula for colicky babies?

Colic is rarely directly tied to formula—most cases have no underlying cause, just an immature digestive system. Still, some babies do react to certain proteins with gas and excessive crying.
If your baby drinks formula, standard cow's milk protein formulas trigger fussiness and gas in some infants. On pediatrician's advice, switching to a hydrolyzed (broken-down protein) formula has helped some families. But formula changes should only happen with a doctor's input—each formula has different nutrient ratios.
For breastfed babies, the mother can try eliminating dairy, soy, or eggs for a time under pediatric guidance. Remember: most colicky babies improve with time, not dietary changes.
