Ideally, night time crying is mostly due to some pain (mostly ear pain) in babies but if he is consolable after taking on lap, then it sounds normal. Nothing to worry as per your history.

Five is the time for introduction of solid foods which takes care of the hunger. Introduce solids in the form of Rice with daal panic ghee 3to 4 times a day.
Another issue is loneliness of child as the night becomes quite mother should be talking and cajole the baby during day and night it creates a sense of confidence that mother is around.
