Patient's question:
After 20 days, I went to the county hospital because of a fever of 38.2 degrees. The doctor said there was gas in my stomach and I needed to be hospitalized. The attending physician said the baby had a bit of jaundice, some diarrhea, and a slight oozing of blood from the umbilical infection.Doctor's answer:
Hello, a newborn's big belly doesn't necessarily mean bloating. How is the baby's feeding and bowel movements?Guidance:
It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for a check-up to see if it is truly bloating. In most cases, it is not bloating, and the parent's perception is incorrect. If the bloating persists for a long time, it is advisable to have an X-ray to check for any digestive issues.
