I’m a Senior Corporate Recruiter in Minnesota who recruits mid- to senior-level engineers and technical managers. I first entered the employment industry 19 years ago, and have an AA in Automated Production Equipment Technology and a BS in Industrial Technology…but that’s not why I’m writing. I’ve developed a theory about the cause of colicky babies, as well as a theory for a simple and very effective way to stop it. My goal now is to determine if my theory is correct.
If your newborn is going through a colicky stage right now, you’re certainly not alone. Here are some staggering statistics:
• “Colic is a common condition, and is estimated to affect at least 20% of babies during their first few months.” (Medical News Today)
• “It's estimated that up to 40% of all infants have colic.” (Children’s Hospital and Clinic of Minnesota)
• “There are more than 3,900,000 births annually in the US.” (Children’s Hospital and Clinic of Minnesota)
Based on these estimates, there are 780,000 to 1,560,000 babies--and that many sets of highly overwhelmed parents--who experience colic every year. I don’t have any kids myself and I’ve never been around a colicky baby so I can only imagine how challenging and incredibly stressful it must be for those parents and caregivers who, at this very moment, are taking care of newborns who’ve been crying uncontrollably and nonstop for hours, and they have no idea how to make them stop. Then, when the baby finally does stop crying, the parents no doubt tiptoe around their lives because neither they nor medical science know what will trigger the next round. It’s also astounding to know that nobody…nobody…has been able to figure this out—but obviously something is affecting the babies and causing them to cry uncontrollably.
• “The cause of colic is unknown.” (Mayo Clinic)
• “Colic’s exact cause is unknown, and that's why there’s not a clear way to help it.” (WebMD)
• “In most cases, colic is a ‘noisy phenomenon’ for which there is no good explanation or treatment.” (National Institutes of Health)
Do you have a colicky baby? Does your baby cry with seemingly no way to stop it? Then I’d like to work with you to test my theory, and here’s how it would work: we’ll have a 10- or 15-minute phone conversation so I can learn about your baby’s crying, eating and sleeping patterns. Then, I’ll call you back within perhaps a day with my proposal for your baby. There’s nothing risky or invasive about my theory whatsoever; in fact, my proposal to you will be nothing more than a personalized schedule for eating and sleeping times, and if my theory is correct, it’ll prove highly effective in preventing future colic episodes. And of course, I’m not asking for anything in return for your participation in my study except your opinion about the effectiveness of my theory. If I'm correct, then my next step will be to develop an app so parents can eliminate this excruciating time with their newborns.
