my baby for the past 4 days has been crying constitly when she wakes up .could it be colic?how do i tell?


Question: what could i give her for a upset tummy?shes 1 month old.

Answers:
A long time ago, when my oldest son was only three or four weeks old, an elderly woman approached me in church with a piece of advice that I thought to be a little "stupid" in the beginning.

She said that when a baby's feet get cold that it makes their tummy hurt and they cry. She told me that if my baby ever got fussy or cried a lot to put him on some socks regardless of whether it was winter, spring, summer, or fall.

I smiled and told her thank you, really just being polite cause I figured with today's medicine that I didn't need any "old folks" advice.

As time would prove, the elderly woman was so right in what she had said. I finally put socks on my son's feet (each and everytime he was fussy) and you wouldn't believe how much it helped. From that day till now, I've always been a firm believer in socks on an infant and find myself passing that bit of information along every chance I get.

Won't cost you anything to try and you have everything to gain.

Good Luck and Best Wishes!!!
could be gas, small babies are usually always gassy. it could be colic. she could be hungry when she wakes up.
