Get ur baby examined by a good pediatrician.....after proper history n clinical examination one can decide on treatment.....If baby is feeding well, active , passing urine >6-7 times, no abdominal distension...u can try Coliza/colicaid drops 8 drops 3 times daily n proper burping after each feed

After feeding put the baby on left shoulder and pat just behind stomach at back for atleast for five minutes, baby burp 3to5timesNow lay the baby on Right side of the baby putting a pillow below head maintaining that head is above level of stomach
If you burp properly, baby has no problem
