Colic
Does your baby have any symptoms of colic yet? Although colic often begins when a baby is three weeks old, it sometimes doesn't start until they are four to six weeks old, so you may not be out of the woods yet. Remember that symptoms of colic typically include a baby, who is feeding and gaining weight well, cries for several hours, usually in the early evening, for no obvious reason.Almost worse than having a colicky baby is hearing the phrase "it's just colic," which implies that there is nothing you can do about it. And while there is no known treatment or cure for colic, that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to calm your crying baby. Most newborn babies who are crying like to be swaddled, many like to be rocked, while others enjoy being sung to or going for a walk. You may just have to figure out what works best for your baby though.
