In babies, gas pain usually starts in the first few weeks and typically shows itself this way: the baby suddenly, usually in late afternoon or evening, starts crying for no clear reason, pulls their legs toward their belly, clenches their fists, and their face turns red. The belly may feel tense and swollen. Crying episodes can last 20–30 minutes to a few hours and often ease temporarily after gas is passed or after a bowel movement. The key difference: when not crying, your baby is happy, feeding well, and gaining weight normally. If there's fever, vomiting, bloody stool, rash, or poor weight gain, this isn't gas and needs immediate pediatric attention.
