Why does my baby keep farting?

Many mothers are particularly worried when their babies fart all the time, because every mother wants her baby to be healthier, so when their babies fart all the time, many mothers are particularly worried. Therefore, they want to fully understand why their babies fart all the time. The following content gives a detailed introduction. Many mothers can read the detailed introduction below to understand the reason.

Since babies' gastrointestinal tract is not yet fully developed, intestinal motility is often uncoordinated, making them prone to intestinal bloating and flatulence, as well as frequent crying. This phenomenon is medically called infant colic, which usually occurs 2-3 weeks after the baby is born and generally improves gradually after 3-4 months.

Therefore, parents should understand this developmental problem of their baby and try to keep the baby in a comfortable position to help the baby expel gas.

It should be noted that if a child farts constantly with a sour and smelly gas, it is a sign of indigestion. If improving the diet is ineffective, the child can take some stomachic and digestive medicine.

If the child farts intermittently but has no odor, it is mostly due to increased intestinal motility caused by hunger, which suggests that parents should feed the child. If the child farts and has a lot of feces, you should reduce high-starch foods and increase protein and fat foods appropriately to avoid affecting the child's development. Children are prone to bloating mostly because they eat and suck too quickly, causing air to enter their stomachs, especially when the baby is hungry for too long before feeding; it may also be that the nipple hole of the bottle is not of the appropriate size, causing air to enter the baby's body through the gap in the nipple.

Mothers do not need to be too nervous about their baby's bloating. Unless there are serious symptoms such as tenderness and difficulty breathing, they need to take their children to the doctor in time. Usually, be careful not to let your baby be hungry for too long before feeding. Give your baby more abdominal massages to help gastrointestinal motility and gas discharge, so as to improve digestion and absorption. Also, when feeding, make sure that the milk fills the front end of the bottle nozzle, and there should be no slope to prevent the baby from inhaling air. Also, temporarily stop eating foods that are easily fermented in the digestive tract and produce gas, such as beans.

It is a problem that babies keep farting that cannot be ignored. The above content gives a detailed introduction. I believe that those who understand the above content have a comprehensive understanding of the reasons why babies keep farting. After finding out the reasons, mothers should make improvements in all aspects as soon as possible.
