The Colicky Baby
A recent study conducted by the Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute found that out of 526 babies, roughly 25% had signs of colic at six weeks of age. However, by three months of age, 85% of those cases had cleared up entirely. There is no real cure for a colicky infant, but there are some things you can do to make your life and the baby's growing pains more bearable. |

Colic Relief for Babies and Parents
You may have heard of "colic gripe water" or "colic calm" but have no real idea what these things are, or if they work. Are homeopathic remedies just old wives tales aimed at ripping consumers off, or can a simple concoction of herbs actually assist your baby with his or her growing pains? Colic is a condition that sometimes persists for four months after an infant is born. The baby will cry for hours, days and weeks for seemingly no reason at all. As a parent, it's easy to get discouraged or feel like a failure, but there are some colic relief products that you should try before becoming too disheartened. |

What Is Renal Colic?
Renal colic is excruciating, spasmodic pain hitting the kidneys and bladder. If severe, then there may be an inflammation of the kidneys from retained urine (also known as "hydronephrosis"). While colic in babies is not a serious concern, and equine colic can be life-threatening, this form of colic is extremely painful but can be treated with remedies for colic, such as medication or sometimes surgery. |

Biliary Colic and Gallstones
Though it is often described as colic pain, biliary colic is generally characterized by a steady ache in the upper right abdomen, beneath the rib cage. Sometimes these signs of colic and the resulting pain may migrate toward the right shoulder blade or come with nausea and vomiting. The pain colic can induce comes from a blockage in the gallbladder, which is caused by gallstones in approximately 80% of all patients with this malady. |

Money and the Single Parent- Part I
Money is always tight when you’re a single parent. Most couples have a hard time
living off of two incomes, yet a single parent is supposed to make due with only one
income. You almost need to be a financial guru to survive, but it can be done. I
single-handedly raised my son on one small income. Money was tight, but all the
bills were paid and we never went hungry. Here's how you can do it too. |
