This can be quite a normal phase - especially because it coincides with a growth spurt :")
The truth is that it'll pass and this is a phase that every baby experiences to different extents!
But I also know how lost you might feel and would want to know all the ways you can help baby feel better :") these were some things I tried when my baby was going through this and I just kept trying and rotating through the list until something worked!
- try burping in case it's upper gas
- massaging in case it's lower gas
- walk around, pat, talk to baby
- white noise / lullaby music
- pacifier
- change in environment (walk out of room to living room, to kitchen)
- introducing a cuddly / comfort toy
- feeding milk
Their milk intake can be drastically more during growth spurt - mine drank another full feed within the hour too! If this keeps persisting, can look up PURPLE crying.
Press on! 🫶🏻
