If it's forumla, the baby may be in need of a burp, or maybe has a sensitive stomach... I would suggest you go to the pharmacy and get some GRIPE WATER. Woodwards is generally best as it has no alcohol (some of the other ones have a small amount, not harmful but better not to have it). A bit of gripe water can really make your life easier. If you have other questions, you can hit me up
What she and others have said. Gripe water is worth trying as it's harmless. If using formula then try a different brand or better still breast milk for as long as possible as it really is MUCH healthier for most people.

Amazing how many people want to rush a crying baby to the doctor or ER. No wonder the queues in hospitals and doctors are always so long.
