To think colic can't suddenly come on at 12 weeks?

A non C word question and apologies for AIBU but in desperation for advice!

DS is 12 weeks and was the happiest of contented babies. Rarely cried and was happy to sit in a bouncer watching the world go by or playing.

The last week I feel like he's turned from Dr Jekyll to Mr Hyde!

He's FF and on anti reflux but we made the change at 4 weeks and he's never had a problem since. He's a good sleeper overnight and this hasn't changed-up once for a feed at 4am ish.

The last week he starts off the day all smiles and gets progressively worse! By the evening he's an absolute grotbag of misery (much as I still love him)

I just read about colic in the evening and thought perhaps it could be that? He does seem to calm down if bounced on a shoulder or taken outside in the pram but other than that is tearful until bed at 7!

Help-where is my happy son?

I think colic can just appear.

Try putting on some white noise. Might help.

It can just turn up I'm afraid, my little one got it overnight when he turned eight weeks! I hope it's resolved soon ❤️
