About one in five babies will experience colic, which means they may cry for three hours a day, at least three times a week, for about three weeks, even when they are perfectly healthy. With time, it goes away on its own but it’s important for families to get support while they’re caring for a colicky baby.
Host Jessica Stewart-Gonzalez talks about the challenges of colic and the importance of support networks with Adrienne Brotherton, a Birth to Five Helpline Specialist at Southwest Human Development.

She enjoys spending time with her kids (when they aren’t driving her crazy) and celebrating all of their little, and big, accomplishments. Jessica has been in the field of family and child development for over 20 years, focused on normalizing the hard work of parenting and making it easier to ask the hard questions.
