How to relieve gas pain in babies?

Here are some traditional and simple, drug-free suggestions for relieving gas pain in babies:

1. Rubbing the Baby's Belly:

• You can help the gas to pass by gently rubbing the baby's belly. Making circular movements in a clockwise direction can be especially effective.

2. Rubbing the Back:

• To burp babies, you can put them on your shoulder and gently stroke their back.

3. Moving the Legs:

• You can help the gas in the intestines to pass by moving the baby's legs like they are riding a bicycle.

4. Make Sure You Hold Them in an Upright Position:

• Keeping the baby in an upright position during and after feeding can prevent gas from accumulating.

5. Review Breastfeeding Techniques:

• Make sure the baby is breastfeeding correctly. Sometimes gas pain occurs due to swallowing air.

6. Hot Application:

• You can help the baby relax by placing a warm (not too hot!) towel or cloth on his/her belly.

7. Arnold Maneuver:

• It can help to release gas by holding the baby in different positions.

These are only general suggestions, if your problem persists, professional medical help should be sought.

Now I have a few questions so that I can direct you to the right branch according to the information you provide:

1. How old is the baby with this problem?

2. Does the baby cry often or does it happen at certain times?

3. Have you made any changes to your feeding habits lately?

4. How is the baby's poop, is there any change, color or consistency?

I can direct you to the appropriate medical branch according to the necessary information.
