Anyone else find the evenings between five and eight are just a wall of crying? Six weeks old. Is this the thing everyone calls colic or is this just Tuesday.

That is the classic pattern and it peaks around six to eight weeks then reduces on its own. Ours was five to eight every night for about a month. Motion, white noise louder than you think, and take turns so neither of you does the whole stretch.

Worth mentioning to the health visitor if there is a lot of forceful vomiting or arching during feeds, as that can be reflux and it is treatable. Otherwise it is just the wall and it does end.
