My 6 week old baby was always colicky and fussy. Cried inconsolably here and there sometimes.

Last night, we went out and she screeched all the way home and then from 9 pm to 12 am.

Today, it was the same story - fussy from 12 pm and then really angry crying from 2-3 pm to 11 pm.

They say colic lasts for 3 hours. This is fussiness all day and peak crying for 4-5 hours! Thankfully she sleeps through the night, i assume she's tired from all the screaming and crying - idk!

Do y'all think it's colic?

If yes - what can I do to help. I've done tummy time, bicycle legs, castor oil massages, warm spong baths, walking with her, and car drives.

Also, how long does this typically last. Because I honestly don't think I can deal with it for very long.

TL;DR : 6 week old baby seems colicky but is fussy throughout the day. Need reccos to calm her down and how long does this last!

I have a 1 month old, breastfeeding was really difficult in the beginning - sore, cracked, and bleeding nipples. I was advised the football hold, which I did for a few weeks. Things started looking up so I switched to cross cradle position.

This was also working out until my mother suggested to try out the cradle position and things took a horrible turn. I started experiencing a pinching feeling while feeding and it slowly became worse. I realised my position is wrong so i switched back to cross cradle, however baby has gotten used to the shallow latch and I'm unable to fix it.

I get the lipstick shaped and white top after the feed, it hurts like a bitch, and i can't keep up.

Please help.

TDLR : went from a good deep latch to a shallow latch due to incorrect positioning and now can't fix it.
