Hiccups can be said to occur in everyone's daily life, and babies may also experience hiccups during their growth and development. Sometimes occasional hiccups after breastfeeding are normal, but when a baby experiences hiccups with a noticeable odor, it should be considered abnormal. So, what is the reason for a baby burping?
For the peculiar smell of baby hiccups, some elderly people in the family may call it "poop hiccups", and the main reason for this is due to poor digestion of food. This symptom is mainly caused by poor gastrointestinal function of the baby, overeating during feeding, or excessive food intake after adding complementary foods.
Therefore, in response to these reasons, when a baby has a belching odor, timely adjustment measures should be taken. Temporary food control measures can be taken to alleviate the excessive gastrointestinal burden caused by indigestion, and the amount of complementary foods should be reduced appropriately. And for excessive types of complementary foods, they should be reduced to 1-2 as much as possible.
For pure breastfeeding, it can be carried out as usual. If milk powder has been added for feeding, the proportion of milk powder should be reduced appropriately to make the milk powder thinner. And a moderate amount of warm water should be added between feedings to promote gastrointestinal digestion and increase fluid circulation. After the baby's bowel movements are normal and there is no odor, they can resume normal feeding.
