WHEN IT’S NOT COLIC

There are three symptoms that are not related to colic and are important to know:

FEVER: This is not associated with colic and any sustained temperature of 38-40° C needs immediate attention.

DIARRHOEA: Although this is a tummy symptom it is not linked to colic.

COPIOUS VOMITING/WEIGHT LOSS: This can be serious and should be attended to immediately.
