4 Month Baby, Crying, Making Gasping Notice. Normal?

My son, 4 month old just got done crying for about an hour and a half. We tried feeding, changing, bathing, he was also without a fever. When he finally fell asleep from crying, we notice that he making a gasping noise about every 10-20 sec for a few minutes. Then he would stop for a little while and start back up again. Is this normal?

hello
hi there is nothing much to worry.. may be your baby is having stomach ache.. seek a pediatrician...this stomach ache occurs due to gas in stomach.. a well known medicine for its treatment is decolic . if a patient with similar symptoms would have arrived to my cilinic i would have prescribed the same. this medicine contains semithicone which helps in removing gas...
other treatment is gripe water which contain sodium bicarbonate.
