There are a few common health problems that babies can experience, such as colic, constipation, and reflux.
Colic is a condition that causes an infant to cry for hours on end for no apparent reason. Constipation is the inability to have a bowel movement, and can result in painful bowel movements and difficulty passing stool. Reflux is when stomach acid backs up into the esophagus, and can cause vomiting, coughing, and choking.
