Have you experienced colic?

When I look at her now, my sweet little Fiona, she shows no signs of it. Almost six months old, she coos and giggles, flirts and blushes, and squeals with delight when I kiss that sensitive spot on her side. There's no more arching in pain, no pulling her legs up to her abdomen, no sticking her tongue out like a lizard and howling for hours at a time.

You'd never know it to look at her today, but this child spent all of her first three months and part of the fourth in what looked to my wife and me like abject suffering. Her beauty and sweetness were always evident, but they were in constant conflict with the demon colic in her belly.
