A two-year-old baby has already been weaned and is starting to eat normally like a little adult. If there is a period of bloating at this time, it is definitely closely related to diet. Mothers need to actively search for the cause of their baby's bloating and treat it with targeted medicine. What should a two-year-old baby do if they have bloating in their stomach?
1、 A nutritionally balanced diet
In daily life, parents need to mix their children's food reasonably, achieve diversity, avoid monotonous food, and provide food that is easy to digest, in order to effectively prevent the symptoms of baby bloating.
2、 Cultivate good eating habits
Parents must prevent their babies from developing unhealthy eating habits. If a baby has a habit of overeating, parents must help correct it. When encountering a baby's favorite or new dish, parents can consider preparing in limited quantities. This can not only prevent the baby from overeating, but also enhance their taste and prevent them from being picky eaters or loss of appetite.
3、 Abdominal massage
When parents feed their babies improperly and their babies accidentally experience bloating, then give them abdominal massage. Specific method: Massage the baby's abdomen clockwise one hour after meals to promote intestinal peristalsis, several times a day, while paying attention to gentle techniques.
4、 Take digestive medicine
When the baby has bloated, parents can give the baby some digestive medicine, such as some traditional Chinese patent medicines and simple preparations, and at the same time, don't forget to give the baby an auxiliary treatment of abdominal massage.
5、 Eat some digestive aid foods
When a baby experiences bloating, dietary adjustments can be made to provide them with foods that aid digestion or are suitable for digestion. It is recommended to eat small and frequent meals until the symptoms of bloating disappear. Additionally, spicy foods should be avoided. Sour foods such as hawthorn slices can aid digestion, while foods that invigorate the spleen and stomach include Job's tears, red dates, yams, pumpkins, and potatoes.
6、 Prevention of lactose intolerance
The prevention of lactose intolerance is for babies to consume small amounts of dairy products multiple times, or to replace fresh milk with fermented milk (especially yogurt) first. For babies with lactose intolerance, it is not advisable to drink milk on an empty stomach in the morning.
