Is it normal for a five week old baby to cry on end?
Yes its normal because your baby might be experiencing what is called Colic.
Babies with colic or infantile colic are healthy, well-fed babies who cry long, often inconsolable for no apparent reasons in the first three months of life.
It is often described by the rules of threes. Any healthy, well-fed infant who cries:

* More than 3 hours a day

* More than 3 days a week

* for more than 3 weeks.

However NOT EVERY CRYING IS COLIC!

Colic is common. It usually starts a few weeks after birth and often improves by age 3 months. By ages 4 to 5 months, the majority of babies with colic have improved.
Colic improves on its own, often by age 3 months. Unfortunately, there are no proven treatments that consistently help every baby.

You didn't state if your baby is on exclusive breastfeeding or not. If your baby is on EBF It's a normal phenomenon It is not Constipation. Just the baby "feeling" movement of gas and stool which they perceive as discomfort. It's not a problem and no need for any treatment or remedy. If your child is given formula, please ensure it is mixed in the right proportion of milk to water as instructed by the manufacturer. Do also give your baby water alongside formula feeds to prevent constipation. However, if the poo comes out hard, please see a paediatrician.

Why do my one-year-old baby cry at night?
It's very common for even the best sleepers to suddenly start having problems, whether it's trouble falling asleep at bedtime or abruptly waking up during the night. Starting at age 6 months, separation anxiety can cause babies to wake up crying more than once during the night.
