A. yes, mommy, Farting is very common in infants and growing babies. And farting is a clear indication of the baby being very gassy A baby’s digestive tract is immature and still growing and so it becomes difficult for the baby to cope with trapped air bubbles and gas while feeding. One way to help your baby in this situation is to switch between breasts  Intake of certain gas producing foods by mother can cause farts in babies.the mother eating lots of citrus fruits and dairy products can lead to flatulence in infants in the same way. Avoid consuming these substance.
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy3 years ago
A. In the first month, your baby is learning how to digest food for the first time. The muscles that are responsible for digestion are still developing. This makes the food they eat go through without a proper breakdown. It causes gas to develop through their intestines which lead to excessive farting.
