What should I do if a newborn has frequent flatulence?

Patient's question:

No

Doctor's answer:

The digestive gasp that a newborn's little bottom frequently releases is, although as loud and powerful as that of an adult and sometimes makes parents feel embarrassed, completely normal. Once his digestive system matures a bit, the air swallowed will reduce in frequency and tone when released. Meanwhile, the mother should pay attention to her diet, avoiding overly greasy foods and those that are easily gassy, such as garlic, radishes, broccoli, milk, dairy products, etc.
