مستخلص: Background Infantile colic is excessive crying in infants who are otherwise healthy and whose origin is unknown. It is closely linked to maternal depression and is a risk factor for shaken baby syndrome and early cessation of breastfeeding. This study aims to assess mothers' knowledge and attitude about infantile colic in the Jazan region, as well as their knowledge of the causes, and the factors that affect their understanding. Methodology This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the Jazan region, focusing on mothers who met the inclusion criteria. The data were collected using a self-administered Arabic electronic survey following participants' consent. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS Version 27 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY) using the chi-square tests. Results This study examined mothers' perspectives on various aspects of infantile colic. A total of 215 (75.43%) out of the 285 participating mothers had experienced colic attacks in their infants, revealing statistically significant differences in urban/rural residence, education, birth order, and breastfeeding practices. Approximately half of the mothers agreed that bottle feeding could lead to colic (49.8%), while around half attributed colic to depression or anxiety (50.9%). Most mothers did not relate breastfeeding (69.8%) or smoking (60%) with colic. Around 55.5% believed that milk protein allergy could be a contributing factor. The majority acknowledged the value of massage (63.5%), placing a warm washcloth (59%), and showering the baby (58.6%). Mothers sought advice from diverse sources (56.5%), often family members (36.5%), with minimal doctor consultation (3.9%). Information about colic management was mixed (48.8%); 27.7% got information solely from healthcare staff, 13.7% exclusively depended on the internet, and 9.8% got information from TV and social media. Conclusion This study highlights maternal perspectives and practices regarding infantile colic, showing varying beliefs and approaches that help healthcare providers arrange educational and psychological support to improve infants' and mothers' well-being.
