Gassy baby or colic, how do you know? When your baby is crying and you’re exhausted, the difference can feel impossible to spot.
Gas often looks like discomfort with movement, squirming, pulling legs up, and then visible relief. Colic is more persistent, longer stretches of crying that don’t ease easily and follow a pattern over days or weeks. Both are hard. Both are common. And neither means you’re doing something wrong.
If you’re unsure, your healthcare provider can help you sort through it. You don’t have to decode it alone. 💛
