There are many reasons for a baby's bloating, such as indigestion, swallowing too much air, or intestinal motility disorders. Although there are many reasons for bloating, the solutions can be shared. So what should a 2-year-old baby do if they have bloating?
1. Massage the baby's belly. This is a common method, where the mother washes her hands clean and heats them up. Using the baby's belly button as the midpoint, she gently rubs the baby's abdomen from left to right in a clockwise direction to help the baby's stomach and intestines move. But the mother should pay attention to the intensity and massage the baby for about 5 minutes.
2. Leg lifting technique. The bending of the baby's legs will directly squeeze the stomach. Mothers can let the baby lie flat on the bed and gently lift the baby's legs to bend them almost close to the abdomen. This can indirectly massage the baby's belly.
3. Hot compress method. Take a hot towel and apply it to the baby's stomach. Before applying hot compress, mothers should remember to test the temperature first. You can place a towel on your wrist to feel the temperature, so as not to burn your baby.
In addition to some massage solutions, mothers should also pay attention to their babies' recent diet, try to choose some easily digestible foods, and eat less things that are prone to gas production, such as soybeans and potatoes. At the same time, it is important to keep the baby warm, drink plenty of hot water, and go outdoors to bask in the sun, all of which can help enhance the baby's physical fitness.
