A member asked:

My baby is 3weeks old, he pulls his legs up to his tummy and cries. any suggestions. i a giving him gripe water in small little hot water.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ignore it: At 3 wks they do this at random for no particular reason. They use their crying/breathing muscle to help move food along in their digestive process and make poop, since their belly muscles are week. Assuming the kid is in pain with these events is usually not warranted.
