Q.

Hello Doctor, my baby is 2 months 10 days old, she passes stool at an 1-2 days interval, becomes very gassy the day she doesn't poop which disturbs her night sleep. she seems very distressed and stresses a lot while passing gas. is this normal? how can i make her poop everyday so that she is not at distress?

A. 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 removed all the gas and if the gas is not removed properly it goes into intestine causing abnormal distension and that will lead to colic pain again and again. keep the child in uprightd 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.
