Why does the baby flatulence?
- Swallow too much air
For example, eating too fast or feeding improperly causes the baby to inhale too much air.
- Carbohydrate dyspepsia
Babies are lactose intolerant, or older children eat too many gas-producing foods, such as beans, broccoli, fruits, wheat, potatoes, corn and noodles.
The baby has digestive system diseases or intestinal allergy. Under these circumstances, the baby is usually accompanied by fever, diarrhea, vomiting and other symptoms.
How to judge whether the baby is flatulent?
- 0 ~ 3 months
If the baby suffers from crying, kicking, red complexion and other symptoms, it may be flatulence.
- Three months later
Baby flatulence is often manifested as flatulence, crying, parents’ hugging, etc. If the baby says that his stomach is uncomfortable, and the symptoms of flatulence and hiccups occur at the same time, most of them are also due to flatulence.
What about baby flatulence?
- Do exhaust exercises for the baby,
You can lie on your back in bed and hold your baby’s legs to do bicycle exercises. You can also let your baby lie prone for a while after your baby digests food, which can not only prevent the back of your baby’s head from flattening, but also exercise your baby’s upper limb strength, and at the same time promote other discharge by squeezing your abdomen.
- Drugs relieve flatulence
Silicone is a common exhaust drug, which can polymerize small bubbles into large bubbles for easy discharge. Although silicone is generally considered safe, we still do not recommend regular use.
If the baby has severe colic, parents still feel anxious after receiving advice and using appeasement methods, and can also try to use simethicone for one week.
