5 week old baby crying at specific timing (unable to comfort)

Hello mummies, my 5 week old baby seems to be fussing and crying at specific hours, like between 6 to 10pm. And it's almost to a point where we can't seem to be able to comfort her. We tried burping her to reduce gas, put oilment on her belly, swaddle her, using pacifier, changed her diaper. And she's always like this after her feed. Is there anything else I can try?

Might be baby going through a leap/ wonder week/ growth spurt! Read about this in a mummies chat, during those weeks they will cry a lot, fuss and be very needy and then after those few weeks are over they are suddenly very happy. Its just developmental growth, baby will tend to be very hungry during their leap so just feed on demand and burp them more. Hang in there!
