A. His stomach remains very soft and smooth. He passes gas also ..Sometimes he urinates 4 to 5 times in 1 hour....But in the last 4 to 5 days he is not drinking milk properly. Sometimes he is taking a gap of 5 to 6 hours....

A. Hello there ma’am please do not worry about it too much. It is absolutely normal. You should feed as the baby demands. Please massage baby stomach with BabyHug coconut oil clockwise and anti-clockwise. You can also apply hing water on baby stomach. Also do some cycling leg exercises of the baby to relieve from constipation and gas. Please make the baby burp after every feed. Mother should chew saunf and ajwain after every meal. Thanks and take care
