My 5 week old babys tummy has gone hard which has him crying alot from what i can gather tummy cramps (his stool has turned hard) how can i help him?

Cramps ?: Every crying baby does so by tightening their breathing muscle. This pushes out on the belly and makes it firm. Many people assume they have a digestive or stomach issue when this happens. If the poop is really firm, 1oz of prune juice 1-3X/d spaced out can loosen it within 3 days.
