During the process of feeding the baby, the mother may find that the baby's belly will become swollen after drinking milk. This is likely caused by cold air entering the intestines and stomach. It is necessary to regulate it in a timely manner. When can the baby's bloating be cured?
1. There is a significant difference between the gastrointestinal tract of a baby and that of an adult. As the baby's various organs have not fully developed, they tend to be in a relatively calm state. At this time, if there is too much food in the baby's stomach or if they catch a cold, they may experience bloating. In this case, a hot water bottle can be used to apply externally on the baby's stomach. The mother slowly uses her warm palm to massage the baby's abdomen from top to bottom, helping to expel the gas.
2. Changes in temperature can also cause bloating in babies' stomachs, so the temperature in the bedroom should be kept constant, especially in winter when there is a large temperature difference between indoors and outdoors. At this time, various methods such as heating or stoves should be used to keep the temperature above 20 degrees Celsius, and a bellyband should be placed above the baby's belly button to prevent the baby from catching a cold.
3. For babies fed with formula milk, it is necessary to measure the temperature in advance and maintain it at 40 degrees. If the breast milk is too cold, it can cause the baby to easily experience bloating. Before feeding, you can drop two drops of milk on the back of the parent's hand. If there is no feeling of hot hands, you can feed the baby. After drinking the milk, the baby's upper body should be raised to help the cold air in the baby's body escape.
