Understanding the Causes of Gas in Infants: A Guide for New Parents
There are 2 sources: Harmless bacteria breaking down undigested sugars in the large intestine AND swallowing air during crying and feeding
Mums can lessen their gas-forming vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, beans, and onions
Feeding babies too much fruit juice can also cause gas, bloating, and tummy pain
Why do babies spit up after feedings?
Gastroesophageal reflux is when things like saliva air and stomach acids back up into the esophagus and sometimes the mouth
GER usually occurs AFTER eating when the lower oesophageal sphincter muscle is relaxed (this muscle separates the esophagus from the stomach
This usually occurs at around 4 months old and most outgrow this by 12 months of age
Is maintaining your care worth it?
A helpful tip is cows milk may cause an allergic reaction and can mimic the symptoms
To decrease GER , keep your baby as upright as possible during feedings, avoid bouncing your baby and keep the nappy loose to reduce pressure on the abdomen
