My 17 day old baby boy keeps grunting through the day. Not sure if it is because of gas or indigestion or something like that. What should we do to reduce his grunting?

Question

Accepted Answer

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 abnormal distenzsion and that will lead to colic pain again and again.
keep the child in upright position whether you hear the burping szound or not and also it is not important that you will hear the sound when the child removes the air from the oral cavity.

Answer

Could be due to gas or sometimes it could be due to stomach pain also that’s a very common problem with child if you see that the problem is more or the child is facing more of trouble with that you can give him Bonnisan five blocks maximum four times in the day
