Amelia was a pretty cranky baby for the first 7 months of her life. The doctor said it was "colic". We tried everything under the sun.
Mylicon Drops
, Colic Calm, Gripe Water 
, Colic Care Gripe Water Blend
, and the list goes on.... All of these products seemed to work for short periods, but this girl's got some lungs on her! Even the doctors would say "We know her lungs are clear".
There was one thing that we forced onto her that quieted her down a bit (and gave Mommy and Daddy's ears a break). The BINKY! We called it "plugging the scream hole".
At the time, we didn't care who thought it was "wrong". Some people are totally against Paci's, but it was way better than her constant screaming. She loved the Binky and soon began to call it her "NahNah". I'm assuming it's because we always said "Night Night" when she went to bed.
She is now 17 months old, and CANNOT go to sleep without her Binky. I tried laying her down without it, and you would have thought the world was coming to an end. We don't let her have it unless she is going to sleep, but I have to keep 3 of them in her crib in case she drops one! How will we ever free her from this addiction???
