Hi,
The crying sounds to be hunger related issue rather than other problem.
If there is sensitivity to the formula, you will find diarrhea and other abdomen stuffs presented, not only crying.
Manage to fulfil the satiety of the baby and be sure to check bowel movements, weight gain on regular basis.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
