HI...by what you quote this looks like a evening colic ans is quite common in this age group. This is because some babies in the eagerness to drink milk, gulp in air too while feeding fast and this air has to come out as belching or burping or flatus. Till it comes out, there will be mild discomfort and this is the reason why the babies cry.
I usually do not recommend any anticolic medicines as the relief is only temporary and the drug effect will halt the intestinal movements temporarily which is not good.
