Causes and symptoms of colic
Newborn colic is a very common phenomenon, occurring in almost all infants.
- The first reason is excessive formation of gases in the intestines due to its insufficient development (when the child’s intestines “mature”, the colic problem, as a rule, goes away). Intestinal colic causes great discomfort in the baby. And since the child cannot explain in words that something is bothering him, he makes his condition known by crying and screaming, waking up at night and waking up his parents. Flatulence in children is a problem that deserves great attention. After all, the most important thing for any family is the health of the child. Among many mothers, there is an opinion that in the first six months of life, nothing other than mother’s milk should enter the body of a newborn baby. This is one of the causes of colic.
- The second reason - remember that excessive formation of gases in the child’s body occurs due to the fact that the nursing mother eats too much sweets or fruits. Therefore, it is important to monitor your own diet and if a child develops colic, you should reduce or completely eliminate the consumption of certain foods.
- The third reason is improper attachment to the breast when the baby swallows air.
It is also important to place your baby on his tummy before feeding. Of course, these measures will not completely solve the problem of colic, but they will help alleviate the severity of attacks and the passage of gas. For those parents who hold less radical views on feeding and treating newborn children, we can recommend “Dill Water” baby tea to prevent intestinal colic. Complete instructions for using dill water for newborns.
