Sometimes, the baby farts quite frequently, which inevitably makes the mother worry, the baby " farts too much ", is there something wrong with the body?
Reasons for baby farting
In infants, farting is a normal phenomenon, because the baby always eats day and night, and the digestive system is naturally working day and night, so as to benefit the baby's weight growth.
Therefore, babies often fart, which also means that the baby's digestive system is functioning normally, indicating that the baby is well absorbed.
At the same time, the baby's gastrointestinal development is not perfect, and the gastrointestinal motility is irregular, so the baby often has " flatulence ", and naturally needs to "fart" to solve the flatulence problem.
