3.5-month-old baby fussiness?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

The 3.5-month period is a time of commonly seen fussiness in babies. The most common cause at this age is growth spurt—babies want to nurse more frequently, may be fussier, and their sleep patterns may change. Also, around 3-4 months, sleep regression can begin; babies wake more often, nurse then spit out the breast. Both are normal parts of development and usually resolve within a week or two on their own.

When to be concerned: Fever (above 38°C), vomiting, diarrhea, rash, poor weight gain, or fussiness lasting more than 2 weeks warrants consulting your pediatrician. If baby suddenly cries very loudly and inconsolably, pulling legs toward belly—this could be gas pain too, but a doctor's evaluation is wise.
