Gas bubbles can often cause discomfort, leading to crankiness and crying.
Many babies suffering from gas pull their legs up, lying in a curled position in an effort to relieve the discomfort. These can cause your infant to get gas. Avoid feeding your baby cow's milk, as it can cause gas. Talk to your pediatrician about other options. Make sure the nipple is the right size if you are bottle-feeding.
