instruction: hello doctor I have a week old baby he is only breastfeeding no formula he had gas problems like any other baby and the doctor prescribed us simethicone for infants 5ml three times a day to help relieve it he eats and defecates normally at least once a day sometimes once every two days lately he has begun crying hysterically and inconsolably we thought of it to be colic so we exercise his legs bicycle kicks and massage his stomach but that only soothes him for a few minutes and then he resumes crying today I noticed that he was grunting we offered him the breastmilk thinking he is hungry but he latched on then immediately threw his arms up stiffened his back and let go then it seemed like he was grunting while trying to poop I know babies cry it is how they express their feelings but when he cried we could figure out what the reason was hunger discomfort wet diapers etc but now we are dumbstruck please help
