I have an urgent ques here, my baby boy of 4month is getting lot irritated from last two days, his feeds are fine but he is not playing for long duration nowdays.
He wants to be held in upright position most of the time and that too in motion.While feeding too it's become difficult to feed as when I take a break to burp him, he starts crying loud while arching himself backward (banana position).First I thought It could be colic condition but even anti colic medicine didn't help much.
Please suggest what could be the possible reason for his sudden behavioural change. Being mom of twins and having no elderly help at home its becoming a lot difficult for me.Thanks

Hello <b><span style="color:#3B5998;"> @637377fb649d830016907ca2 </span></b>Pahwa.My baby boy weight is 5kg., he is 4 & half month baby (by corrected age 2 & half month). He likes sucking (even when his stomach is full) and nowdays biting his finger.<br>
He is formula bottle fed baby. He do vomit often because he refuse to burp (cries loudly and arch back) in between feed, so have to burp him when he completely finishes his feed due to which he takes out milk (around 5-10ml)<br>
I do slight massage to his stomach, leg exercises & tummy time too.It could be reflux, for that just after feed I take care to keep him in upright position at least 10-15mins.<br>
My concern is from last two days he is crying a lot, he gets silent when he is taken in upright position and I roam around (he even don't like that I hold him upright while sitting).<br>
<u>What</u> I am assuming is, he needs more stimulus and he may be getting bored.It may be a social development for a growing baby. But I am not sure I am thinking in right directio.Plz guide.
