Hi,
I assume your child is on breast feeds - you have not mentioned.
colics are common in babies especially in the first few months.
Try to burp the baby during and after feeds.
Colic medicines will not stop them completely and excessive use of them is also not recommended.If the child is passing stools n ormally,gaining weight andquiet in between do not worry.
