Depends: Babies pass gas that they swallowed during feeding or fussing or because they make it. We all have germs in our digestive tract, and they live off what we don't absorb during digestion. Some kids pass more because they fuss more, or eat more air when they feed. Some don't digest some of what they eat, like lactose in milk, which can lead to more gas.Eliminating lactose feeds helps some.
