Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. the recurrent stretching / curving of the body again and again as well as uncomfort / making grunting sounds as well as hiccups as well as colic pain all are due to gas in the intestine and stomach.
it is very important that after giving milk to the child you
should keep the child in upright position and do burping for 15 to 20 minutes(irrespective that you hear the burps or not). gas in stomach causes hiccups.
do not keep the child back on the bed after 1 burping because one time burping will not remove all the gas and if the gas is not removed properly it goes into intestine causing tabnormal distension and that will lead to colic pain again and again.
keep the child in upright position whether you hear the burping sound or not and also it is not important that you will hear the sound when the child removes the air from the oral cavity.
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Babies who have colic may show symptoms such as:
Burping often or passing a lot of gas. This is likely because of swallowing air while crying. It doesn't cause colic.
Having a bright red (flushed) face.
Having a tight belly.
Curling up their legs toward their belly when crying.
Clenching their fists when crying.
