Infant cramps are very common and cause a lot of family anxiety . The older ones used to use homemade recipes to relieve the babies' crying. Most of them involve the use of teas, such as:

• Chamomile tea with fennel
• Lavender tea

• Keep calm to try to calm the baby
• Put a song and create a quiet environment
• Apply warm compresses on the baby's belly, but do not forget to test the temperature before
• Put the baby

Remembering that whenever there is a refusal to breastfeed or a significant change in the baby's bowel movement, it is important to notify your pediatrician.
