Venting a baby is a common challenge faced by many new parents. Since babies’ digestive systems are not yet fully developed, venting can help ease their discomfort. Here are some practical tips and methods to help you effectively exhaust your baby.
Choose the right posture
Posture holding
Vertical hold: Hold the baby upright on the shoulder and gently pat the back. This position helps the gas move upward.
Sitting position: Allow the baby to sit on your lap, support their body, and gently lean forward.
Lying position
Lying on your back: Place your baby on a flat surface and gently lift their legs, moving as if they were riding a bicycle to encourage bowel movements.
Massage gently
Use a warm palm to gently massage the baby’s abdomen, in a clockwise direction, to help the gas drain out.
Try gently pressing the baby’s abdomen to increase the pressure on the intestines.
Use a warm towel
Place a warm towel on the baby’s abdomen, which relaxes the muscles and helps the gas pass through.
Proper feeding techniques
Adjust the feeding position: Ensure that the baby is in a comfortable position while feeding to avoid swallowing too much air.
Timely burping: Pause regularly during feeding to help the baby burp and reduce gas buildup.
Watch your diet
If you are breastfeeding, watch what you eat, certain foods (such as dairy products, beans, or spicy foods) may affect your baby’s digestion.
If it is formula milk, consult your doctor to choose the right formula and avoid ingredients that may cause bloating.
Seek professional advice
If the baby continues to experience bloating or discomfort, or if exhaust methods are ineffective, it is recommended to consult a pediatrician to rule out other potential problems.
By doing this, you can help ease discomfort, improve digestion, and enhance your baby’s health and happiness.
