Baby's gastrointestinal function is relatively low, and intestinal peristalsis is imbalanced, so they are particularly prone to some gastrointestinal discomfort symptoms, such as abdominal pain, bloating, etc. If parents find that their baby has bloating, they need to take timely measures to relieve it. So, what should I do if my child has bloating during the confinement period?
When a baby is not yet one month old and experiences symptoms of bloating, parents can eliminate the symptoms by massaging the abdomen. After rubbing both hands together, parents can place them on their child's stomach and gently massage clockwise to promote gastrointestinal peristalsis and exhaust.
Many babies experience bloating due to inhaling too much air. Therefore, after breastfeeding the baby, do not immediately put the baby on the bed. Instead, burp the baby to promote its excretion and avoid symptoms of bloating.
Mothers should breastfeed their children on time, and the interval between two feedings should not be too long. If the interval is too long, it will make the baby very hungry, so they will be very anxious when feeding, which will inhale a lot of air, causing the child's stomach to swell, and may also cause the baby to vomit milk. Additionally, mothers should try not to breastfeed their children while they are crying, as this can increase their intake of air.
