Colic?

Mrs. F

My 5 week old seems to cry the majority of the time she’s awake. The only things that come close to soothing her are being wrapping in her baby carrier, and the sound of the vacuum (both of which just basically put her to sleep). My husband and I have tried mylicon and mother’s bliss gripe water, and initially we felt like they helped, but recently they don’t seem to be doing the job. I’m breastfeeding, and she’s definitely having plenty of good diapers. She cries throughout the day, but usually I can get her to stop; however at night from like 8-11 she screams at the top of her lungs to no avail. Once we can finally put her to bed, though, she sleeps anywhere from 2-4 hour stretches. Is there any way to know if she definitely has colic? Also - any suggestions to help us through will be more than appreciated! We go back to our pediatrician on Friday, so I’ll be bringing it up again there as well, but I’d love to hear any advice you guys have in the mean time!!
