Don't know Why he is crying????

My Ds2 is 4 mths and the last couple of days he has been waking from his sleeps crying. I have taken him off his reflux meds (at 3 mths) as I thought he was getting better and sitting up more now.
I don't know whether I should put him back on it as he is crying in pain because of either burning or wind. He is a little hot so I thought maybe teething.????
He seems over tired, he is not really settling, crying after a feed, I have introduced a little bit of farex once a day but he is still pooing.
Why is he crying still?
Can reflux be related to colic????

I have found the reflux can get worse again if a child is sick or teething. My DS is 2 and his reflux still plays up if he is sick.
I would talk to your dr as the dosage may have changed if he is heavyer and try him back on the medication. if he settles down then you know it is the reflux.

Good luck

Thanks Rell,
I suspect it reflux again, and feel he is teething only being as young as he is. I bought panadol today. He is dribbling alot, sucking at his fists, feels hot and has red pimple like things on his chin. All the signs of teething.
I put him back on the meds today and he seems to have quietened down and is not screaming in pain.
