Sorry love, not enough information and every answer is just going to be a best guess. I assume this is not about solids because she was too young when this started. Have you checked for colic and reflux? Reflux is caused by valves not shutting properly. If it is gastro-esophageal she could have almost constant heart burn. Try elevating one end of her cot. (Remember to tuck her in at the lower end so she doesn't slip down, and no unnecessary bedding) Find out what the Dr gave her and why. Did it work?
Good luck to you and your wife and your little girl. It will get better. She is definitely worth what you are going through now.

If the baby is formula feed then it may make the babys stomache upset .. or then again latose intolerant.. or just the fact that she is a baby that will cry... some are like that and there may not be anthing to do untill she is a little older and can really enjoy herself while playing in a walker of a jonny jumper or something of the sort. the only advice i can give you is what i have done for my 6 month old daughter , and that is when she is crying hold her as close as you can hug her love her talk softly to her gently bounce her even sing to her untill she relizes you are there and that there is nothing for her to cry about

Try rocking her or walk and rock. Some times that helps. See if she is hungry. She may not be getting enough food. My first daughter was that way and come to find out that the formula wasn;t enough for her. At 21/2 months I had to start feeding her baby cereal in her bottle. And after that she was fine. Ask your wife if she has to feed the baby to often. If so, then I would suggest the cereal in the formula. Is the formula to hot or cold when you feed her? That might make a difference also. But I usually walked and rocked my daughter when she was that way. But if it continues I'd go back to the doc and find out what the hell is going on.
Good Luck!

My daughter was the same way, turned out she was allergic to dairy. Everything I ate that had dairy in it would upset her. It takes 2 weeks to clear the dairy out of your system. If she is formula fed you may need to use Neocate, it is a prescription formula and very expensive, $45 a can. We thought my daughter had colic as well but discovered it was an intolerance to dairy. She is 18 months now and is over it! They get over it much sooner if all dairy is eliminated from their diet. We didn't discover it until she was 2 months old so we went through the crying for quite awhile.

When my daughter was a baby, the only time she stopped crying was when I breastfed her and when she slept. (She wanted to use me as her comforter, but, well, my breasts couldn't take that much motherhood). Now she is very healthy, very smart, very outgoing and has a character like iron. What I mean is, don't fret. Crying is natural. Even if it sounds too much crying. I hope her mother is breastfeeding her.
And, I didn't hear drugs for a month old baby's crying. Maybe you should get a second opinion.

There isn't a whole lot that you can do, it sounds like she is coliky. She will eventually grow out of it, you just have to be patcient. A friend of mine would throw a towel in the drier for a few minutes until it got nice and toasty, then lay it across her babys belly, she said it worked and swears by it. Good luck and just hang in there.

At this point, crying is her only form of communication and mostly it's because of two things; she's hungry or needs a change; so...the best thing to do is to hold her and make her feel comforted; usually, she will go right on to sleep. I had that with my youngest; she was fussy as I don't know what; but as time went on, she got herself together. Best to you.

They do start to show how they're really going to be after the first two weeks. My son was so wonderful for the first two weeks and then a terror until three months. My girlfirends had this same experince. It will get better so hang in there......they get to be so much fun after 3 months.

sounds like colic and that can be very demanding on new parents...try warm baths before bedtime...
the only thing you can do is comfort them the best you can and try to stay calm -- no child has died from colic ... remember sometimes you just have to bear w/it until they mature enough to outgrow it

i agree with 4kids4me if she is on formula then mybe try changing it. if breastfeed try the food diary(mum write down everything she eats to see if there is anything that is causing bub to feel yuckky.) or try getting an anti colic bottle i know there is one that brand name is nuk.
good luck and congrads
