Hi everyone,
Our baby is 5 weeks old. From birth we realised he took a long time to wind and was therefore very uncomfortable. Our first child would bring it up instantly so we were really lucky and so this is all very new to us.
Our baby is perfectly happy all day but at approximately 3-4 o'clock in the afternoon the crying starts, he's difficult (almost impossible) to settle and he brings up his knees to his tummy-but no temperature and he feeds as normal. At this time we give him infacol and this really works for him-thankfully! I've read though that it can be used after every feed. Should I give to him during the day even when he is perfectly fine but to avoid it being so bad for him come 3-4 o'clock? I just don't want to feel I'm giving him too much of it.
Also I have 'diagnosed' this as colic-am I correct? Do I need to take him to the doctor?
Thank you all so much in advance :)
