    Hello All,

    My son now 5 months old sometimes used to shout in mornings and evenings.. BUt not able to identify the cause of it.. Initially we thought due to stomach upset,sleepy, hungry etc factors but still not able to find the cause to shout ... shows a angry kind face and shouts a loud .. can any one had similar type situations where babies shouts at times ...

    It could be gas...check out remedies for gas.
    I can write what worked for my daughter.
    When she was uncomfortable...I used to mix heeng with water and rub on the tummy around her navel.That worked most times.You can check other remedies.

    Have you introduced some new food to him? Some times it can be intolerance to some new food ...or not being able to digest it yet.

    My daughter used to do that. During sun down specifically. I used to give her 1 ml gripe water much before sun down time and that helped. Check with your doctor before giving it though.

    Hi telja

    Did your baby's condition improve yet?

    Babies usually cry in the evening as they get tired. My baby still cries before sleeping at night and gives us hard time. Morning crying could be gas.

    Other things I do for gas:
    - Use heeng ( just a wee bit) in water around navel. Make sure you do not have concentrated mixture. It can cause rashes.
    -Gripe water
    -drops of saunf/ajwain water ( boil water, small amount of saunf and very less ajwain)
    -bicycle leg movement and lying on tummy or tummy pressure.

    Other reasons for crying could be:
    -Humidity and room temperature levels also. Check if you need humidifier? Babies can get overheated.
    -His feed? any solids? or Milk could cause gasiness? If on full solids, try eliminating food one by one to narrow down food that might cause issues.

    Now I know this is going to sound little gross, but mothers have to do.
    -Is he peeing/pooping fine? Check for worms...know that i mean.

    Telja, it is usually recommended that babies be kept on their backs.
