What are the signs and symptoms of infant colic?
Caregivers will ask you about your baby’s health since his birth. You may need to tell them when your baby cries, eats, sleeps, or has bowel movements. They may also want to know if anyone in your family is allergic to certain foods or other things. A physical exam will also be done to look for problems with your baby. Your baby may be weighed to check if he is getting enough to eat and drink. Laboratory and x-ray tests are usually not needed if your baby’s physical exam is normal. If caregivers cannot find another medical problem, you may be told that your baby has infant colic.
