Why does a 2-month-old baby cry constantly?

⚡ Short answer: Crying in 2-month-olds is usually normal; main causes are gas, hunger, wet diaper, tiredness, or temporary colic episodes that peak in the evening; however, if fever is above 38°C, there's green/yellow vomiting, they completely refuse feeding, or no wet diaper for 8+ hours, take them to the doctor immediately.

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Crying in 2-month-olds is very common and usually normal. At this age, babies' main reasons for crying are: gas pain, hunger, wet diaper, tiredness, or overstimulation. There's also "evening colic" at 2 months — unexplained but temporary crying that peaks in the evening.

When to see a doctor?

If your baby has a fever of 38°C or higher, their vomit is green/yellow colored, they completely refuse feeding, or you haven't had a wet diaper for 8+ hours, take them to the doctor immediately.

A quick check: how often is your baby feeding, and is she struggling with gas? This can help you tell them apart.
