My 6wks old Baby tends to cry and be cranky during the late evening. Even feeding he had problem drinking. And his crying and cranky can last up to 2hrs. Is he having colic. How can we ease colic baby?

If there is sudden onset of regular & prolonged periods of crying then it may be due to colic. colic usually begins in first few weeks after birth & lasts till the baby is about 3 months old. This often occurs at the same time everyday. Comfort ur baby by - giving him small but frequent feeds & burp him well - cuddling him close to u, swaying or rocking him - Talking or singing softly to him

Feeding too fast can lead to a build up of gas. So do slower more frequent feedings. As a rule of thumb feed ur bub twice as often and half as much. A babies tummy is about the size of her fist.

tummy massage can help ease colicky babies. you could search for "baby massage to ease colic" on YouTube.
