A. this kind of sucking ,and mouth movement are due to rooting and sucking reflexes, will be disappeared by 3 month of age, excessive crying may be due to colic.Infant colic is commonest cause of excessive irritability of newborns and infants. To get rid of this you need to do infant colic exercise 10 to 12 cycle per sitting 3 to 4 times a day. You may use colicaid drops, enzymes drops. Mother has to take easily digestible food,must consume more garlic, ginger, Fenugreek,asoeftida in her diet.
