Baby's sudden change of cry

Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone can give me any advice...
My 6 month old went into the bath tonight absolutely fine as soon as she came out she made a weird high pitched cry. We didn't think anything of it we just thought it was a weird noise. She went to bed fine but has recently woke up making the different crying sound. Is this just a new noise she has found and it's a coincidence or could there be something wrong?

Can you check her to make sure she doesn’t have any hairs wrapped around toes or fingers? I know this has been said a lot on here but it’s probably worth a look as a sudden change in cry that is very noticeable to you sounds a little odd.

Colic?

Call a professional high pitched crying can be bad

Call 111 and ask their advice if you have any niggling doubts.
