The main reason for a baby's bloating is poor digestion, which gradually weakens the peristalsis function of the intestines. As a result, there will be too much gas in the stomach and intestines that cannot be expelled, leading to bloating. So what if the baby always has bloating?
There are many reasons for baby bloating, so when parents encounter such situations, they must first understand the cause of bloating in order to alleviate the discomfort of the baby.
1. If the nipple used for feeding is incorrect, and a larger nipple is chosen for the baby, it is easy for the baby to inhale excessive air while drinking milk; But if the pacifier is too small, the baby will exert a lot of force when drinking milk, which will also inhale more air, so both of these will cause the baby's stomach to swell. So, when purchasing pacifiers for babies, it is necessary to consider the specific situation of their own baby.
2. Babies always have bloating, which may be due to their poor stomach. Therefore, it is important to breastfeed them in the correct position to avoid inhaling excessive air while drinking. After the baby finishes drinking milk, the mother should not immediately let the baby lie down on the bed. Instead, she should pick up the baby and gently pat their back to better help the baby digest and avoid bloating.
3. The feeding method is incorrect. Some novice mothers feed their babies directly when they cry when they are hungry. This is not right, because feeding the baby while they are still crying makes it easier for the baby to inhale air while breastfeeding. So in such situations, it is recommended that mothers try to soothe their babies from crying before feeding them. Mothers should master the feeding rules of their babies in daily life and feed them according to their needs.
