Cry after breastfeeding
Are you perplexed as to why your baby is still crying after the feed? Is he still starving? Is there a supply problem? Is there any evidence of teething at this stage? Few mothers share their experiences from the time their baby is 50 days old to 6 months old. The most common cause found in the majority of cases is a gastric problem.

There are a few strategies to soothe the baby
You can do the following:
1. Tummy roll-on/homemade paste of hing
2. Drops of Colic aid
3. Massage the legs and stomach
4. Allow for tummy time
5. After feeding, remain upright and burp for 15-20 minutes.
If it remains uncontrollable, seek advice from a pediatrician.
When we discuss gastric issues, which are common because babies are dependent on milk (liquid), which causes tummy gassiness, the above tricks can be helpful.
Now, mothers usually juggle gastric issues and colic in babies, and they notice little difference in both.
Google suggests that predictable periods of significant distress in a well-fed, healthy baby are colic. A suitable latch is also required. To learn more about the positions, watch videos or speak with a latching expert.
The primary cause of colic is a newborn's underdeveloped digestive system and an imbalance of good bacteria in the digestive tract. Overfeeding, underfeeding, and no burp after feeding are all symptoms. Infants' colicky crying is usually louder and more urgent than usual because the bowel movements hurt their tummy.
You can use a pacifier for self-treatment, but make sure your baby is at least 3-4 months old before using one because they have their own set of side effects. It is assumed that pacifiers confuse babies and make latching difficult for them to understand. A gentle rocking motion in a rocking chair can distract them and change their mood. Walking around the baby, or using a stroller. Baby swaddling and wrapping can provide a cozy feeling. Giving tummy time can also help to alleviate the situation. Tummy time is simply placing the baby on the tummy for a back rub.
What are the advantages of colic aid? ** Drops of Colic aid: Colic aid can be given whenever the baby is in pain.
Please consult your pediatrician regarding dosage. Don't take medication or dosage recommendations from strangers. Dosages differ for each child. It is primarily used to treat colic pain in babies, which is caused by trapped gas that cannot be released**.
