Why Is My 14 Month Old Baby's Stomach Sticking Out A Little More Than Normal?
My 14 month old daughter's stomach seems to be sticking out a little more than normal. She is acting normal and it doesn't hurt her if I touch it or push on it. She had a little bit of the flu on Tuesday night. What should I be on the look out for?

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day
The sticking of abdomen is likely to be due to hypotonia of abdomen causing pot belly which is perfectly normal for the child of this age group. It does not call for any concern.
Take care
