Is it normal for a newborn to fart with poop?

Newborn babies need patience and care. For new parents, every time the baby farts, some feces will come out. Parents often don’t know what’s wrong and think the baby is sick. In fact, under normal circumstances, if the baby’s mental state and diet are normal and there is no diarrhea, this is generally a normal phenomenon. In most cases, this is a normal phenomenon.

1. The baby's farts with feces are related to the environment. If the baby catches a cold, he will fart with stool. When autumn and winter come, you must keep your baby warm, especially when sleeping, the navel must be covered to prevent the baby from catching cold.

2. The baby's farting with feces is related to diet. The baby's food all comes from the mother. If the baby is breastfed, you need to check whether there are any changes in the individual's diet recently. If your baby is not breast-fed but fed with formula, you need to check whether the brand of the baby's formula has changed.

3. When your baby farts or poops, observe the color and amount. If your baby's stool is not green or black, there is no need to take medicine or see a doctor. If your stool has a strong odor or is large in quantity, you should go to the hospital to check if there is any problem.

4. Because the baby is too young and has a weak ability to control defecation, it is easy for him to bring out feces when farting.

If your baby has diarrhea, you should consider whether the baby has indigestion or intestinal bacterial infection. Take digestive medicine under the guidance of a doctor, and adjust the baby's diet to ensure a balance between complementary food and milk.

Some babies fart frequently but do not defecate. It may be that the baby is holding back food, so it is normal for the baby not to defecate for a short period of time, and mothers do not need to worry too much.

If the baby only farts but does not defecate for a long time, then the baby may have indigestion and can take some baby-specific medicines or probiotics appropriately. The mother can also massage the baby's belly button when she has nothing to do to help the baby speed up intestinal peristalsis and aid digestion.

If the baby is breastfed, the mother should eat less spicy food. If this happens to the baby who is fed with milk, then you should consider whether to change the milk powder.

If the baby is already suffering from a fever, then timely treatment must be given and no delay is allowed. You can consult a doctor about medication, or you can choose some milder medicines for children, such as San Gongzai Children's Seven Star Tea.

During the day, you can also let your baby move more appropriately, which is conducive to intestinal peristalsis and is very beneficial for the discharge of feces by the baby.
