POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. The "gur-gur" sound you are hearing from your 9-month-old baby is likely due to gas or digestion-related noises in the stomach or intestines. This is common in babies and can occur for several reasons:
1. **Gas**: Babies often swallow air while feeding, crying, or even during play, which can lead to gas build-up in the digestive system. The movement of gas through the intestines can create a "gur-gur" sound.
2. **Digestion**: As food moves through the digestive tract, it can make noises, especially as the stomach and intestines break down and process food. This is a normal part of digestion.
3. **Hunger**: Sometimes, the stomach makes noises when a baby is hungry. If the "gur-gur" sound occurs before feeding times, it could be a sign that your baby is ready for a meal.
4. **Food Sensitivities**: Introducing new foods can sometimes lead to temporary digestive discomfort or unusual sounds, especially if a baby is sensitive to certain ingredients.
5. **Normal Development**: As babies grow, their digestive systems are still developing, and they may produce various sounds as part of this process.
If your baby is otherwise healthy, feeding well, and not showing signs of distress, pain, or other symptoms (like excessive crying, diarrhea, vomiting, or a distended belly), these sounds are generally normal and not a cause for concern.
However, if you notice any of these concerning symptoms or if the "gur-gur" sound is accompanied by discomfort, it would be a good idea to consult your pediatrician for further evaluation.
