I just wanted to write a note to say how great I think Colief is. I am sure my now 4-month-old daughter Lilly thinks the same.
After a few weeks of screaming every time she was due a feed or have a feed at about two and half months old with terrible Colic these drops were like a blessing in disguise...
She is now a bouncy 4 month old and I have just started to wean her off.
Thanks god these drops came along as "Gripe water" and "Infacol" are not a patch on these!
Thank you

These drops are brilliant my 5 week old has screamed every night in pain but tonight she has been so good, I was just wondering are they causing her to sleep as much as she is?
Thanks again

I just want to say what a marvelous product colief is.
When i had my first baby 4 years ago I was at my wits end coping with my baby's constant crying, after numerous trips to my gp I was told it was colic, I was recommended this product in my pharmacy and couldn't believe the change in her after only 24hours she was like a different baby!
12 weeks ago I had my second baby who also suffered from colic and I knew exactly what to use this time. Your product is a pure marvel to a new mother.

I just want to say your product is remarkable i have a 17week old baby son who suffered terribly with trapped wind and suspected colic, thanks to your product he is sleeping 12 hours a night, he is calmer and a very happy baby, i will definitely recommend this to anyone who has had a baby and they are suffering the same i was using Infacol at first but after a while the symptoms came back and my baby son just would not take it because it made him heave the taste must be awful and very sweet for him but colief is just remarkable he is just having one drop in his feed now and we are going to not put any in one bottle less as he is now going on to solids so hopefully the colic will not return, Thankyou for your time in reading this email. Yours sincerely Ian

We have been using colief with fantastic results for the last three days; the only problem is that she is still having very watery movements. How long can we expect this too last?
Vicki has posted the following comment:
Hello I have been using colief for 3 days and have seen an unbelievable difference in my baby as if the colic has disappeared but all of a sudden he has had a really bad bout of colic. I had stopped using Infacol when beginning with the colief. Should i continue with Infacol and colief? I could not bear to go back to the way my baby was with colic thanks for your help Vicki
Clare has posted the following comment:
Colief is amazing! Prior to using colief my baby had bright green stools. This has now improved a great deal although she still gets it from time to time. Is this linked to lactose intolerance?
Julie has posted the following comment:
I have been using colief for about three weeks starting forth week after two weeks i started to cut down and got to three bottles a day without colief but colic returned i have now restarted colief in every bottle therefore i wonder if you could give me advice in how long i could use colief if colic does not subside i find the drops very good and have recommended them to other new mothers.

Just like to say a big thank you to you for the now obvious effectiveness of your product. There are many items on the market that claim this wonderous cure and that wonderous cure but I must admit this is one of the few occasions that a product actually does what is claimed. We used Colief after a skeptical recommendation and we invested in a bottle, equally skeptical. Though we feel that we have to pass on our thanks for a good nights sleep, as it appears to have done the trick! We are very impressed and thank you again! Yours Ritchy, Claire and little 7-week-old Thomas!
Dear
Sorry this has taken so long to reply, but my beloved husband didn't tell me
It had arrived!
The colief was absolutely wonderful, and Luke is now coming up to his first
birthday. Although his gripes didn't stop, he was remarkably much better
for colief. I recommend this product to any new mum, as I've not seen it
advertised anywhere. Many, many thanks once again.

Dear Team, I just had to send you this e-mail to tell you my story. I have a four month old boy and from the day he was born I found that he fed poorly was always screaming, always hungry only slept for two hours max at a time and was always so grumpy. I tried every colic treatment you could think of and nothing worked. I wasn't sleeping at all and was a just a wreck. When he did sleep he seemed to be uncomfortable and was always grunting and trying to move. I was at my wits end. I saw my doctor, my health visitor and even my local hospital (Kings College Hospital in London) neurmous times and they said that he would grow out of it. Last week Monday I visited a local chemist to get my baby some nappies and I saw your product on the shelf I read through the instructions on the back and though that it sounded very good. Unfortunately, at the time I did not have enough money on me and came back for it a couple of days later. I gave it to him on Saturday just gone for the first time and on Sunday night he slept for six hours straight without waking and then once fed slept again for a further four hours. He seems so much better in himself he seems to be a different baby. He is completing all his feeds now whereas before he would only drink half. I start back to work in a few weeks and I can now feel positive about this. Before I was dreading it because of the lack of sleep I would have had. I am so so pleased and I just wanted to say a big big THANK YOU. Your product is a godsend I wish I could hug and kiss you all you have made a very distressed mother so happy. THANK YOU Miss Jenny
Andrea has posted the following comment:
My eldest son who is now 2 had what the doctor called colic although it started later than usual and lasted even longer. He wasn't thriving and i was advised to supplement his feeds with formula which made the problem much worse. At around 5 months I read a small article about Colief and asked the health visitor about it. She'd only heard it mentioned and didn't know anything about it but said it couldn't hurt. I ordered it and within a couple of days the colic had gone. As it was lasting only a couple of weeks and was quite expensive I asked to get it on prescription but was told it had to be proven as lactose intolerance. The tests came back negative but as the colief was working I was allowed it prescribed. It was a Godsend. Now my new son is having the same symptoms and I am going to try Colief again after 4 months of sleepless nights I hope it works! I didn't realise you could use it for breastfeeding. Your's gratefully, Andrea
Chris has posted the following comment:
What a superb product, but why doesn't anybody know about it? Not one Doctor, midwife or health visitor has suggested it. We tried other products, but with no joy, but within hours of trying Colief, Zak was a different baby. Nowhere near as much crying except when he needed feeding. Please try to advertise your product to a wider market. I'm sure other parents will need to know, even if it is to get some sleep!!!! Thanks, Chris
Carolyn has posted the following comment:
Thanks to Colief we now have a life back. We have twins 10 weeks old. One of which developed colic. After two bottles with colief added he was a different baby. He is on first milk while his sister is on second; she sleeps longer even though she is the smaller of the two. Do you think I could switch my son from first to second milk, as he seems to feed more frequent than his smaller sister but with the colief added many thanks Carolyn
Emma has posted the following comment:
Just wanted to say Thankyou for colief, i have a 4 week old who was suffering terribly from colic until a friend mentioned colief! She is fine now and settles well after a feed.
I am a mum of 3 and had a bad time with colic with my other 2.
Its well worth the 9.99 i pay for it and will be spreading the word.
Thanks again Emma
Ada has posted the following comment:
I am so glad you have a comments section, as I just want to scream out to the world at the difference in my son since trying Colief four days ago! I am a child minder and foster career and have encountered so many colicky babies, but my own son drove us to despair! If he was not feeding he was crying and even if he fell asleep would jolt from his sleep in agony absolutely screaming with pain it is just horrible to watch him in such obvious pain. He was like a zombie and so were we. Last night was the first real nights sleep we have all had and today my son was lying smiling and gurgling like a real baby and that has rejuvenated me to see this happy baby, it has taken three days to have effect, although there was immediate improvement on trying to wind him. I cannot express enough, my heartfelt gratitude for this marvelous product. (I am breastfeeding and just add the drops into a teaspoon of milk directly before feeding)
Thankyou Ada.
Pauline has posted the following comment:
My 8 week old baby breastfeeds every two hours - even during the night. Can I express enough milk to last through the night, store it chilled then add the 4 drops when I re-warm it to room temperature. I have been using the drops for 5 days and Jessica is a different baby. Most noticeably the abdominal distention and the number of times her bowels are opened has improved beyond belief. Thank you for a more pleasant baby!
Sarah has posted the following comment:
I've tried every colic remedy possible and when i started using colief drops when my daughter was 6 weeks old, they made an amazing difference she was sleeping and feeding well. She is 9 weeks and has started struggling on her feeds again can i increase the dosage, i put 2 drops in 4oz cow@gate plus milk, or should i persevere with the dose i am giving her.also when i think it is time to take her of the drops how do you wean them off? Do you put less and less drops in feeds or do you give one bottle with drops and one without and so on? Your reply would be most grateful.thankyou very much. Sarah

ANGIE has posted the following comment:
I PURCHASED COLIEF THROUGH A RECOMMENDATION BY MY FRIEND. MY BABY GIRL EVA DEVELOPED COLIC ABOUT A WEEK OLD AND WAS CRYING ON AND OFF FOR HOURS EACH DAY. WE TRIED INFACOL, DENTINOX, COLOCYNTH GRANULES AND INFANT GAVISCON TO NO AVAIL. HOWEVER AFTER BEING ON COLIEF AT 6 WEEKS FOR 24 HOURS THE DIFFERENCE WAS REMARKABLE. HER CRYING REDUCED TO LITERALLY 10 MINS A DAY FROM HOURS EACH DAY. WE FELT WE ONLY STARTED GETTING TO KNOW HER AFTER SHE STARTED COLIEF. SHE IS NOW 17 WKS OLD AND WE WILL BE REDUCING HER COLIEF IN THE NEXT FEW WEEKS AS SHE IS STARTING TO GO ONTO SOLIDS. THE ONLY DISADVANTAGE TAKING COLIEF WAS WATERY POOS, BUT EVEN HAVING TO GIVE HER A QUICK DUNK IN THE BATH/CHANGE OF CLOTHES EACH DAY AFTER HER POO WAS WORTH SAVING HER HAVING THE PAIN.
I NOW RECOMMEND IT TO EVERYONE WITH COLICY BABIES.

Eileen has posted the following comment:
Colief was recommended by my health visitor after weeks of my 10 week old son suffering nightly with colic. As a first time mother I was at my wits end not being able to comfort or settle him, I went out immediately and bought Colief and was amazed at the difference after only a few feeds. He is no longer distressed after feeds. I no longer dread him feeding now. I would strongly recommend this product to other mothers. Its just a shame I hadn't discovered it sooner. Do you advertise? Posters at docors!ante natal clinis/chemists would be a good idea, If my health visitor hadn't used it herself both myself and my son would still be suffering. THANK YOU

I would like to say how impressed my husband & I are with the Colief Infant Drops. I started to use them on our second daughter when she was only two weeks old & developing severe colic. We had gone through 14 weeks of colic with our first daughter & did not want the same experience. I went to a local chemist & he said the drops may or may not work but I was more than willing to give anything a try.
The drops worked very quickly. Our daughter is now 9 weeks old & doing very well. She has the occasional bout of colic pain but this only lasts a few minutes, not three hours!
We are looking forward to reducing the drops when she becomes 12 weeks old & hopefully the colic will have gone.
The chemist has been well thanked & I hope other parents will benefit. I have been & will continue to tell my friends about Colief Drops, hoping to give them some peace of mind
Yours Carolyn

I just wanted to tell you that you product is wonderful. There is nothing in the US like it for infants. I have 4 children and all of them are lactose intolerant. My first 3 children had to be put on soy formula because of lactose intolerance, however,
our newest addition is doing great and has not needed to be taken off breast milk. My daughter was born in the 25th percentile and is now 6 weeks old and has gained 2 inches in length and almost 4 lbs. Our pediatrician was thrilled and couldn't believe how well she was doing with the breast milk. She has not projectile vomited once since using the Colief. Baby Mia is now in the 75th percentile for her age and looks so healthy. I attribute this to your product and have told everyone that will listen about Colief.

Your product is brilliant!!!! A question that is concerning us though. We are going on a long haul flight to Australia in 4 weeks and are needing to make our baby’s bottle up as he needs it because he is on cow and gate Omneo comfort and cannot be bought ready made. I saw in your information that if you had ready to use formula, to put 4 drops of colief in and use in half an hour. Would we be able to make up his formula and do the same, put four drops in and wait half an hour. Were obviously very nervous of going on a long flight and would like to have peace of mind that he isn’t going to have colic. Colief is the only product that has given our baby total relief of colic. Look forward to your reply, yours sincerely, Susan

Thankyou Thankyou Thankyou - my baby was hell on earth for the first 6 weeks Screaming blue murder all day and night in agony. There was nothing we could do to help him - only hold him whilst he thrashed around in pain. After 24 hours of using colief he was a normal baby again - I cannot recommend this product enough - Thankyou for saving our baby from pain and our sanity.
Alastair has posted the following comment:
Hi,
Just thought i'd let you know that your product is absolutely incredible - My son has had terrible colic for the last couple of nights resulting in hours of crying (from both child and parents), but last night was a glorious 5 hours peaceful sleep, followed by a lightning 30 minute feed and another 4 hours sleep. Marvelous! I have already waxed lyrical about your product two the two pregnancy women in my office, and shall continue to do so to expectant friends.
Well done.

Susan has posted the following comment:
Colief is absolutely wonderful! Thank you so much! Our son suffered so much, now he appears to be colic free, thanks to colief.
I will recommend it to everyone with a colicky baby, because colic is so stressful for parents and baby alike, I tried everything I could think of nothing else worked for him, or previously for my poor daughter who suffered for a full 6 months with colic.
Diana has posted the following comment:
Hi,
My Husband and I would just like to say a big 'thank you' colief has helped our baby girl Rebecca 100%
She also was fine for the first week but then she wouldn't sleep until the constant crying and screaming had completely worn her out, by then it would be 4am.
We tried the drops on recommendation from a friend and we noticed the change over night, literally!
We tell everybody about it, I tell them it's like 'sleep in a bottle' for baby and parents, haha.
Thanks again

Debbie has posted the following comment:
I just wanted to say what a wonderful product Colief is! Our son Harry developed colic at 2 weeks old. A Doctor said it may have been a feeding issue and that he couldn't possibly have colic. We looked on the NHS website and it described his exact symptoms, my midwife and health visitor said the symptoms sounded very much like it too, the drawn up legs, intermittent crying, tight tummy with fitful bouts of sleep! My Husband and I tried everything even taking it in turns to stay with him whilst the other got some much-needed sleep.
Our health visitor told us about Colief, desperate to relieve Harry of his pain we went out straight away to buy some. The result... after a day or two a happy baby and parents!!!
We would recommend Colief to anyone who has a colicky baby.
Kate has posted the following comment:
Your product has saved my sanity twice. I have a newborn of 2 weeks and a 3 1/ 2 year old. Both born very late and starving hungry due to not getting much from me for the last couple of weeks in the placenta. Your drops have worked yet again! Is there any move for them to be able to be prescribed. We are finding the cost of £9.99 quite a lot but never the less it is money well spent.
Do you have any ideas?
Mrs. Wendy has posted the following comment:
Hi i am very impressed with your product, as it has done my son the world of good. The only problem is you cannot tell how much is left in the bottle, so therefore
i ran out in the middle of the night. Which caused him a set back. I think for future parents i would recommend a clear through bottle so see how much solution is left. Thanks once again for your help.
Miss Claire has posted the following comment:
Dear Sir,
I really feel I need to express my gratitude to you for this product.
After watching my baby cry and write around in pain for 8 weeks and being told by various doctors that it was 'just colic' I was at the end of my tether. I felt like nothing would solve the situation and even started blaming myself. After coming across colief on the ivillage website from a mother who had used it successfully I brought it the next day, and within 48 hours I had a different baby. I really can't imagine how much worse it could have got if I hadn't have come across colief and now I try to make more people aware of it. Not one of the midwives, health visitors or doctors mentioned anything about lactose intolerance to me and it seems that the only people who know about colief are the ones who, like me, had to reach the very bottom of despair until they discovered it.
I have not come across any advertisements for colief (I live in the West Midlands, England) and was wondering if you do advertise at all?
Thank you, once again for allowing me to enjoy my baby and get on with my life.
Yours faithfully,
Claire
Michelle Rowing (31) and baby Jessica, from Kent
The doctors thought she had a reflux problem,
although the scan was negative. They prescribed Gaviscon,
Ranitidine and Infacol colic treatments, but they didnt
make any difference.
I read about a woman whose baby was lactose intolerant.
She found some enzyme drops that transformed her babys
life. Theyre called Colief® Infant Drops
I mix two drops into expressed milk, or you can use
it in milk formula, and then leave it in the fridge
for four hours. I gave it to Jessica before a feed,
and the next day she was normal.
We started Colief® at 21 weeks and she put
on 2lb in the next three. Doctors said lactose intolerance
wasnt possible as I was breast-feeding, but I
disagree.

Hazel Whatley (27) and daughter Chelsea, from Monifeith,
Angus
Since birth, my little girl Chelsea has always
struggled to bring up wind, but the problem became especially
bad when I brought her home from hospital aged one week.
It got to the unbearable stage where she wasnt
able to get to sleep until at least two in the morning
and was screaming with pain every time she was awake.
We were at our wits end when a friend of
mine asked if I wanted to try a new product called Colief®
Infant Drops. I was willing to try anything at this
stage but I was amazed at how quickly they worked. I
started putting the drops in her milk on the Wednesday
and by Thursday she was like a different child. She
was happy and had stopped screaming. It was a miracle!
Its so lovely to see her smile at last.

in Best magazine.
Sue Heaney (37) and daughter Emma, from Cambridgeshire
I tried all the anti-wind treatments but none
of them worked. I found Colief® really easy to use,
as you just add the amount of drops you need to the
babys milk.
Its great as you can adjust the dosage according
to how bad the colic is. Once I had added the drops
to Emmas bottle, I noticed she was far more relaxed
and comfortable and she began to enjoy feeding again.

Fiona Ellis (26) and son Danny, from East London
Danny was fine for the first week, then suddenly
started having problems. He found it difficult to feed
and afterwards would cry and scream incessantly, pulling
his legs up to his tummy as if he was in terrible pain.
It was exhausting; we were hardly getting any
sleep and always dreaded his next feed. I tried every
remedy known to man. My health visitor recommended Infacol,
but it didnt touch the colic, and neither did
gripe water. I also switched to formula milk, but again
it made no difference. Then my mother-in-law sent me
some Colief®.
I gave some to Danny and noticed a big improvement
straightaway. He could be winded more easily and was
much calmer after his feed. He also slept for longer
stretches up to three hours at a time
and when we fed him during the night he would go straight
back to sleep. Thankfully Danny is a happy ten-month
old and a joy to be with.
