Hi,
If baby is otherwise playful, feeding well, passing stools and urine normally, and sleeping well in between, nothing to worry. Some fussiness is expected only. If baby feels lethargic, refusing to feed we need further evaluation.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
