With our first son nightimes were simple. Occasionally he would need some gas medicine, but he would go to sleep with no problem. With our new baby, of course, things are much different!
Our baby man get fussy every night now around 7pm...now, I guess, this could be descibed as colic. The only part that has me confused is that the crying usually stops as soon as he's in MY arms. Last night was the exception, so we will chalk it up to the ugly gas monster.
We have tried burping him, and in this case he is very much like his brother, and this generally takes a lot of patting to get the bubble. Unlike his brother, this bubble is accompanied by liquid...so don't wear anything you don't want messy :-).
This game...and I'm starting to believe its becoming a game more than gas...goes in cycle. Nursing (so I will hold him) , fall asleep while eating, and we think that its a good time to put him to bed...but nope! Then comes the crying. He can go a LONG TIME! And this is our night until about 10pm.
