Hello dear parents   You all must have noticed that babies under 6 months age spit up regularly, mostly after having feeds. Many times they are having continuous hiccups. Sometimes they cry constantly for about 2 hours, usually in the evening.  At that time we look for help, a little worried and concerned but then the entry of our elderly people comes with lots of reassurance, home remedies, and the words.
