Baby shouting at 5 months old

My bb just turned 5 months old this week and recently he started to shout. Like he will tense his throat and 'argghh' and clench his fist. I realise he does this when he is bored, or when he is unable to sleep. It is quite bad and my husband will scold him to get him to stop. He has done this before, at around 3-4months old but it was mild and it stopped after a few days. I'm afraid bb will lose his voice. How do I teach him when he is still so young? Is this normal? He also drank lesser milk recently, like 700ml a day on average.

It’s normal. He just discovered he has a voice and experimenting with it. I cannot tolerate at first for my baby son and have difficulties WFH haha! So I have to go to the office everyday. The loudness will settle by itself and you will get used to it as the days goes by. Soon you will find your baby a joy :)
