What Is The Cause Of Passing Gas And Feeling Uncomfortable Of My Baby?
My 2 Months baby girl is having problem - crying post breast feeding and then passing gas lot of time and feeling uncomfortable. We tried our best to burp her often but some times she is not giving us time for that and crying a lot. Our Pediatrician, advised aristozyme 6 drops 2 times a day. It didn't help a lot. Now one of my uncle advised us to give bonnisan for few days. Can we give the same? Thanks!
Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. This is called evening colic and is quite common in this age group. This happens when the baby sucks at the breast very fast and in eagerness to drink milk will gulp in air too. Unless the air comes out like burping or flatus this discomfort will be there and next time check if she is sucking too fast and gulping in air too. You will be more convinced. Usually I don't advice any medicines for this as they give only temporary relief. The two best ways to relieve this distress is - 1. Do not put her in lying position after feeding till she burps out the swallowed air. 2. If she is still crying - put her in prone position and keep patting her back gently so that she passes off the flatus and gets relieved. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health. Dr. Sumanth MBBS., DCH., DNB (Paed).,
