A. this is commonly seen due to the gas in the abdomen and many times it can lead to colic pain in the child In COLIC pain you can give anti colic medicines like colicaid 0.5 ml to the child and this medicine can be given maximum three or four times per day but to prevent this problem kindly do regular burping for 15 to 20 minutes. Do not keep the child back on the bed after one burping. during the colic episode you can do stomach massage and limb cycling movements and if the child is more than 2 months of age you can give tummy time also
