A member asked:
My 2 month baby is really gassy. is this normal?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Gassy baby: Yes, especially if your baby is breastfed. Breastfed babies have certain types of bacteria that colonize the colon and produce these gases. These bacterial communities will continue to change until they look more like an adult's around two years old.

Yes: Many are quite so, with the frequency increasing with aggressive feeders who swallow more air with feeds.
