My 1 month old baby has a lot of gas. what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gaseous babies: Are you breast or bottle feeding. Contrary to what you might think breast fed babies swallow a lot of air when they feed. Frequent burping may alleviate some of the gas.Mylicon drops may help. When all else fails glycerine suppositories for babies gently inserted in the sinus for about five seconds helps tremendously.
