Why do babies fart but not poop?

Many times babies will have many problems with their physical or other aspects of development when they are young, and some problems will arise if their diet and other aspects are not taken care of properly. At this time, some parents will be very anxious because they don’t understand what is going on. Let’s find out why babies fart but don’t poop. I hope the following content will be helpful to everyone.

This may be caused by the baby's bloating. Here is how to relieve the bloating.

1. For breastfed babies, everything they eat comes from their mothers, so what their mothers eat is crucial. Do not eat foods that are difficult to digest, such as glutinous rice, beans and bean products, sweet potatoes, etc. If you eat these and pass them directly to your baby, the baby's digestive system is not fully developed and cannot absorb the nutrients of those foods.

2. For babies who eat milk powder, the nipple of the bottle should not be too big or too small. It should fit the baby to avoid air entering during feeding.

3. Don’t feed too much at one time. The baby is too small to digest and it is easy to cause flatulence. So don’t feed the baby too much at one time. Feed more times and a smaller amount each time.

4. When feeding, try to let the baby take the entire areola in, so as to reduce the intake of air, which is another important reason for the baby's flatulence.

5. After feeding, you need to pat the baby's back. You should cup your hands and pat gently until the baby burps. This will help the baby expel the air inhaled during feeding.

6. When the baby is already bloated, you need to massage the baby's belly. Use your palms to rub the baby's belly. You need to use a layer of clothes. Our palms have temperature, and the friction with the clothes will increase the temperature, which will easily expel the air from the baby's body.

7. After patting the baby until he hiccups, you can put the baby down to rest. Be careful not to lie flat on his back, but on his side, which is good for the baby.

8. Warm your baby’s tummy with a hot towel

Using a hot towel to warm your baby's belly can promote the absorption and discharge of air by the stomach and intestines. It should be noted that the towel should not be too hot, it is better to be slightly hot. If it is too hot, it may easily burn the baby, and if it is too cold, it will not have any effect.

From the above, we know that if a baby farts but does not poop, it may be due to bloating. At this time, what parents need to do is not to be anxious, but to find the correct relief method to ensure that the baby improves this condition. At the same time, we must also pay attention to the impact of diet and living environment, which is the best way to help growth.
