DS (3m) has had fits of inconsolable screaming every evening for the last three weeks. Prior to this he'd sit quite happily in his bouncer next to the table while we ate dinner. Nothing makes him happy. He's not hungry, wet, dirty, cold etc, refuses to be held and looks like he's in real pain. Early in his life he was quite gassy, but I think that's mostly passed now. You could actually set your watch by the screaming. It coincides with DH getting home from work, and it's really affecting him. He thinks DS doesn't like him.
I suspect he's currently having a growth spurt as his feeding habits have recently changed, but this screaming has been going on longer than the feeding changes. Any words of wisdom or do we just have to ride it out?
