I have a 2 week old aborable little boy. Around 5-6pm every night he has a 'fit' We think it may be wind or reflux. We have him on Gripe Water. It is only ever a real issue around this time of night and last for around 2 hours then he is off to sleep. My partner and I feel helpless.

Can anyone help/ideas? :fingerscrossed:

thank you!

Hi:)

It could be just his "witching hour". Most babies have an unsettled period starting in the early evening.....unexplained crying, jerkiness, difficult to get to sleep, wanting to feed constantly etc.

I have an almost 12 wk old and she is unsettled from about 5pm sometimes until 11pm! My DS was the same.

Hopefully this is all it is and your little bub hasn't got wind.
