                 1st understand WHY DO BABIES FART ?

                          

                                     

Farting is a very normal and natural occurrence. Farting in babies does not mean the baby is sick. It only means that your baby is gassy and is passing out gas trapped inside abdomen.

Some of the  REASONS  why babies fart are listed here:

1. Aerophagia:

                                  

The air that babies swallow during feeding, eating and crying leads to accumulation of gas.

2. Undigested Food:

                                             Babies also get gassy when mothers who breastfeed don't watch their diet and eat anything that encourages gas formulation.

3. Introduction to solid foods:

                                                                   Because different probiotics and enzymes that aid in digesting nutrients take time to build up, y's stomach accumulates gas when introduced to solid food.

4. Overeating:

                                 When babies overeat, it affects their gastrocolic reflex more that disturbs the digestive system and upsets baby's stomach.

5. Lactose Intolerance:

                                                     It develops when baby's body is unable to produce enough lactose to breakdown sugars.

6. Incorrect breastfeeding postures:

                                                                                 When the baby cannot latch properly, it may cause him to swallow air.
