How to deal with a 4-month-old baby crying

Patient's question:

My daughter is now 4 months old, and she has been crying at night recently. She was taken to the hospital for a check-up, and her temperature was 38.2°C. She was prescribed Jian'er Qingjie Liquid and Ibuprofen Suspension, and given glucose intravenously. However, she cries again after sleeping for a while at night, and it's impossible to soothe her. Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent! Urgent!
First follow-up question: My daughter has been treated for 2 days, and when she cries, her head tilts backward.
Second follow-up question: Thank you all for your concern. I listened to my uncle's advice and used Dinggui Erqi Patches. Now my daughter sleeps well, eats well, and no longer cries. It seems that...

Doctor's answer:

Hunger is the most common reason for newborns to cry. The smaller the baby, the more likely their crying is due to hunger. However, the first one or two days after birth are an exception, as some babies do indeed eat less during that time. If you are breastfeeding, when you start producing a small amount of colostrum and notice your "milk coming in" around the third day after delivery, you may become more aware.
