A. yes it has to be started for gastric trouble you can give collicaid or gastica drops to your baby.proper burping for about 20mins to half an hour on the shoulder and tummy time after every feed helps a lot.cyclic motion of legs also relieves gases . gas related problem is very common in small babies because of many factor including immaturity of the digestive system,as well as usually in babies of 1- 3 months of age it is a very common finding to spit the milk after feed which is called as posseting.it can be reduced by giving a proper burping after every feed. please see that you are not over feeding the child also .if it is very frequent you can give domstal drops also occasionally but only under medical guidance.you can give bonnisan drops too for better digestion.

A. hi yes mam ,you can. but as a child is too young , start with few minutes like 2 or 3 minutes then gradually increase the timing and it's frequency. but it is advisable to stay with your child at that time.
