What Is Colic?
Colic is a medical term used when babies go through bouts of inconsolable crying when otherwise appear healthy. The crying usually starts from late afternoon/early evening and can continue till late into the night.

If your baby is crying and inconsolable mainly during the evening and bringing their legs up into their tummy’s, there’s a good chance they are suffering from a bout of colic.
