What is the reason why the baby is suddenly crying when eating milk at night when the baby is about to come?

Patient's question:

At night, when she was eating milk, she suddenly started crying while eating, kicking her feet hard, then stopped eating and just cried for a long time. Why is that? I thought she had a stomachache, so I gently massaged her, but found that the more she cried, the better she seemed to be. She was fine during the day, but only like this at night these last couple of days. My milk supply is abundant, and her mouth isn't broken.
Past treatment history and effectiveness: None.
What kind of assistance is needed: What could be the reason for this?

Doctor's answer:

The baby is now running a high fever, crying, and not eating milk. It may be related to abdominal pain, poor digestion, and food stagnation. Additionally, check if there are any infectious factors such as oral ulcers or blisters. The baby can take some medication to aid digestion, such as Jianpi San, which is suitable. At the same time, you can give some probiotics like Mimi Ai to adjust the intestinal flora balance and relieve abdominal pain. You can also gently massage the baby's abdomen in a clockwise direction to promote intestinal movement. If the abdominal pain does not subside and there is bloody stool, it is important to check for possible intestinal diseases such as intussusception, which may be caused by nausea, vomiting, or medication like Domperidone. Therefore, it is necessary to seek follow-up medical attention promptly.
