"Colic": "colic" is a misnomer. It is now known to be related to irritability in brain. Your baby needs to be seen by a nutritionist doc if you can find one locally. Otherwise, call the american college for advancement in medicine (acam).They havce a website and mayp be able to refer you to one of their docs.

Night terrors: Night terrors are a possibility these can occur from infancy to adulthood ; reflect a rapid entry into deep sleep triggered by poor sleep habits.It is similar to sleep walking in older kids and adults. Improving the sleep pattern to gain as little as a half hour per night of sleep will usually decrease the frequency in a few days.
