Why is my 1 month 15 days old baby crying continuously?

Hello doctor,
Actually, we have a newly born baby boy of around one month and 15 days. Our baby has a problem that, he continuously cries. Yeah, we agree that generally, newly born babies cry normally, but we cannot accept our babies crying act. Why does he cry continuously?

- Yes but very very less.
Hello,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
We got two things that you are not doing right:
- Stop cow milk, it has more protein not easily digested by the baby. Can use any formula milk if mothers milk is not sufficient.
- Try to get baby burp after each feeds.
Your child is probably having colicky pain. Try doing this. There are a few medications as well but try this for at least 4 to 5 days, if it helps no need of medication.
Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
