My baby is more than one month old and farts a lot

We all know that babies over one month old are relatively small. Such babies are only suitable for breast milk or formula. They cannot eat complementary foods because their digestive systems are not yet fully developed. Therefore, some foods that are not suitable for them can easily cause indigestion. Indigestion can easily lead to farting. So why do babies over one month old often fart?

1. If your baby farts a lot and it has a sour smell, it means that your baby has indigestion. You should reduce the amount of milk, add boiled water, and reduce the intake of fat and high-protein food.

2. If the child farts intermittently but without any odor, it means the child is hungry and should be fed promptly.

3. Frequent farts and feces are often caused by children eating too much food with high starch content. At this time, the intake of high-starch food should be reduced.

First of all, a baby who is over one month old always farts, which is not normal. Because the child is relatively young and his gastrointestinal function is relatively weak, I personally think that there is a high possibility of poor digestion. Considering that it is caused by indigestion, you can take pediatric spleen-strengthening granules orally. Mommy Love can try it. Usually, be careful not to let your child eat too much at one time. You can massage his stomach and apply hot compress on the abdomen.

Breast milk is a magical thing. It has laxative and regulating effects. Therefore, the stool of a baby who is exclusively breastfed is relatively soft until weaning. In this case, the baby's intestines are unobstructed, and a little air will be inhaled when sucking milk or at other times, so the baby will fart more, which is a good thing.
