AB Increased  crying  in  the  first  3  to  5  months  of  life  has  been  the  cause  of  parental  frustration,  stress,  and  anger  for  generations.  In  clinical  terms,  it  is  usually  referred  to  as  colic.  Practically,  it  includes  all  infants  brought  to  clinicians  for  concerns  about  crying,  usually  in  the  first  4  months  of  life.  Based  on  varying  clinical  definitions,  clinicians  then  decide  whether  an  infant  has  or  does  not  have  colic,  undertake  many  (or  no)  investigations,  and  may  or  may  not  recommend  therapies.
