If you had/have a colicky baby, were you or your baby given antibiotics at any time during pregnancy, labor&delivery, or after birth??

pregnancy, labor&delivery, or after birth??" />

Trying to see if there could be a correlation between antibiotics and colic. My baby was on antibiotics at 8 days old for 2 weeks because of a UTI. He was a happy newborn prior and became colicky after the antibiotics. A friend of mine has a colicky newborn and the mother was on antibiotics a week after birth due infection in herself.

It’s known that antibiotics can impact the guts microbiome and health and I’m wondering if that can lead to a baby being colicky.
