2-month-old baby very fussy?

Fussiness in a 2-month-old is quite common and usually part of normal development. The most common causes at this age are:
Colic (gas cramps): Typically starts in the evening, occurs at least 3 days a week, lasts longer than 3 weeks, and involves crying fits. The baby pulling legs to stomach and clenching fists is typical.
Hunger or growth spurt: The 2nd month is a growth spurt period when babies want to nurse frequently. If the baby isn't getting enough milk or there's a feeding issue, fussiness can result.
Tiredness: 2-month-olds need to sleep again after being awake for 45-60 minutes. Missing this window leads to overtiredness and fussiness.
Discomfort: Diaper changes, room temperature (too hot or cold), diaper rash, or reflux can all cause fussiness.
When to see a doctor: Fever (38°C or higher), vomiting, diarrhea, blood in stool, rash, complete feeding refusal, or if the baby seems inconsolable—consult a pediatrician.
