What are the causes of indigestion in newborns?

Indigestion is a common disease in life, and it is more common in newborns. Because the digestive system of newborns is not yet fully developed, their digestive function is very weak. If the diet is improper, it can easily cause gastrointestinal dysfunction, resulting in symptoms such as bloating, vomiting, and diarrhea. Especially the baby's green stool is caused by indigestion. So what is the cause of indigestion in newborns?

The reason why babies often suffer from indigestion is related to the imperfect development of their digestive system. The baby's stomach and intestines are very immature, and the digestive function is very weak. If you do not pay attention to the dietary structure during the baby's growth and development, and ignore the baby's body's tolerance, and feed the baby everything at once, it will often cause the baby's gastrointestinal function to become disordered, causing abdominal pain, bloating, vomiting, acid reflux, diarrhea, etc. In addition, factors that cause indigestion in babies include unreasonable daily diet, overeating, cold abdomen, large temperature difference, abuse of antibiotics, etc. These factors often cause indigestion in babies.

In addition to improper feeding, gastrointestinal inflammation, abuse of antibiotics, cold weather, low body resistance and a cold stomach can also cause indigestion. Long-term indigestion in young children will result in insufficient nutrient intake, poor digestion and absorption, and affect growth and development. Especially for children under 3 years old, this stage is the period of most active brain development and is a critical period that determines the level of intelligence. If the digestive function is not improved in time, the absorption of nutrients will be affected, which will inevitably affect brain development and cause lifelong regrets.

So after the above introduction, we know the causes of indigestion in newborns. After learning, expectant mothers should pay special attention to the baby's feeding, make sure to feed the baby reasonably, and do not let the baby catch cold. At the same time, you should carefully observe the baby's condition. Once indigestion is found, take timely measures to alleviate it to avoid long-term effects on growth and development.
