Dr Karp recommends that by trying to ‘recreate’ the womb atmosphere, it can be possible to alleviate some, if not all, of a baby’s crying or colicky symptoms. He advocates using the ‘Five S’s’: Swaddling; the Side-to stomach lying positions; Shushing sounds (white noise); Swinging (motion); and Sucking (bottle, breast, pacifier or thumb).
