I of course know about colicky babies, but never thought that being lactose intolerant might be a cause. I suspect that tracking down the cause of the colic can be rather tricky.

I will simply repeat that I am very grateful I was able to nurse both of my sons. Younger son was a bit colicky, not too bad. I had plenty of milk and a strong determination to nurse. Not everyone is the same. Which is in no small way why formula needs to be readily available.
