Baby cries for sleep
Hello doctor
My baby is 6 month old and she cries suddenly alot for sleep (rubbing her eyes, hands sucking etc) . Once she wakes up after some minutes she cries for sleep...she play only 10-15 min...then she cries for sleep...we thought she was crying for food...but once we offer milk (brestmilk and formula) to her she drinks it and cries after 10 min for sleep...does it normal ??

if the child is crying at this age it can be due to either teething pain or it might be a part of colic pain due to some digestion problem or it might be due to nasal blockage or some body pain which might be initiation of a viral fever also.
you have to treat according to the findings so better to visit a doctor.
