For a young family, where a child in the house is under 3 months old, a picture is quite frequent when the baby "crashes", hiding his legs or arching himself. This phenomenon has an explanation - the newborn is tormented by gazicks or flatulence.

What are the symptoms of carcinoma in newborns?

Many children cry very often, and the cause of this crying is not easy to establish. But crying from the guns can be determined by the behavior of the child: he does not just cry, but his movements indicate the source of pain, tugging or groaning. Typically, strong gaziki torment the newborn at the same time: late at night or at night, this is due to the process of digesting food.

Why does a newborn child suffer from gas?

The digestive system of the baby is imperfect, and in the first months the digestive tract adapts to incoming food, being populated with the right bacteria and enzymes. This leads to excessive gas formation, which is accompanied by intestinal spasms and painful sensations. But, as practice shows, not all children literally "suffer" from this trouble, some babies successfully avoid excruciating gases. According to the doctors, some factors directly affect the formation of gas.

  1. Diet of a nursing mother . A diet with a high content of acid-forming and gas-forming products (cereals, cheese, potatoes, legumes, oils, cream, sausages, sausages and sweets) can be a key reason for excessive generation of gases in newborns.
  2. Swallowed air. During feeding or during prolonged crying, children can swallow the air, as a result of which the newborn does not escape the gases.
  3. A large amount of eaten food for one feeding, so it is better to feed the baby more often, but in smaller portions.

What to do when a newborn is tortured by a gazelle?

In order to help the child cope with the problem, one can use the ways that helped several generations of mothers.

  1. The medicine for the newborn should be prescribed, of course, by the doctor, but since the choice is small, they are most likely to be assigned to you: a simplex or espumizan (absorb gas bubbles in the stomach), baby kalm, fennel or chamomile tea (relieve spasms and soothe the tummy).
  2. Massage the tummy before eating: put the base of the palm on the stomach and make circular motions clockwise around the navel, pressing slightly on the massage area. Then you need to raise the legs of the child, bend them in the knees and press against the stomach. Repeat the exercise several times until the gazi begin to depart. After the massage and bending of the legs, we spread the baby on the tummy, this greatly enhances peristalsis.
  3. Raise the head of the bed by 30 ° - this will reduce the congestion of gazik in the intestines and help the child "regurgitate." Feed the baby at an angle of 30-45 °, making sure that during the meal he does not swallow the air. When swallowing the air, you must always hold the baby vertically.
  4. After eating and during "colic" attacks, wear the child vertically in the "frog" position. The kid should be necessarily pressed by his tummy to yours, then regurgitation and departure of the gazik is easier.
  5. For many, the "lifebuoy" is a tube of gases from newborns. Today buy a tube in the pharmacy is pretty difficult because of the high likelihood of injury to the intestine. However, several generations of mothers have successfully used the tube as a treatment for babies in the newborn. It is quite easy to use the tube: you need to lubricate the tip with a baby cream and gently enter the baby into the ass for 1-2 cm with twisting movements. If there is no gas pipe, you can buy the smallest enema and cut off part of the pear.

All the tricks and means from babies in newborns are better to use in a complex, combining medical preparations with a way of life of the baby and mother's nutrition.
