Could Overfeeding Cause Discomfort?

When a baby consumes more than they need, they may end up swallowing excess air. This can lead to gas, causing abdominal discomfort and resulting in increased crying. Additionally, an overfed baby might experience more frequent spitting up and have looser stools than usual. While discomfort-induced crying isn't classified as colic, it can exacerbate crying in a baby who is already experiencing colic symptoms.
