Baby colic (also known as infant colic, three-month colic, infantile colic and colic) is a condition in which an otherwise healthy baby cries or screams frequently and for extended periods without any discernible reason.
The condition typically appears within the first three weeks of life and almost invariably disappears, often very suddenly, before the baby is three to four months old.[1] It is more common in bottle-fed babies, but also occurs in breast-fed infants. The crying frequently occurs during a specific period of the day, often in the early evening.
Since the cause is not conclusively established (see below) and the amount of crying differs between babies, there is no general consensus on the definition of "colic". Having ruled out other causes of crying, a common rule of thumb is to consider a baby "colicky" if he or she cries intensely more than three days a week, for more than three hours, for more than three weeks in a month
Between this and your Favre love, I'm gonna have to start calling you Old Man Buzzkill.
"I ain't the type to bitch, I ain't the type to cry, I will sit at your red light and wait for your shit to go by."
Kay beat me to it. I was going to say when they are that young, it is usually gas. Gentle patting on the back while you are holding them on your shoulder sometimes coaxes the burps out....
...but be sure to have a towel over your shoulder.
