Hello,
It is hunger cry means cry due to hunger. when baby is excessive hunger it happens. may be nipple size is larger that baby can’t accommodate. Also, look for colic pain abdomen, wet diaper, cold environment etc these are other causes of excessive cry.
If all is normal in above-mentioned condition then visit the nearest pediatrician.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
