Why do newborn babies' stomachs make gurgling sounds

Patient's question:

I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Why is it that newborn babies' bellies make gurgling sounds?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the baby may have indigestion, don't worry. You can have a stool test done to check. Since the baby's digestive system is not yet fully developed, avoid overfeeding to prevent digestive dysfunction. You can give the baby oral Jianpi Granules and Mamiai to try. There are many triggers for digestive diseases in children. If the child is diagnosed with a digestive disorder, parents need to cooperate with the doctor in active treatment, including gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should be mindful not to let the child develop picky eating habits and maintain a balanced diet.
