Question
The baby is feeding normally without crying or fussing. The stool sometimes has a bit of green color. The baby is premature and has had stomach bloating for over 20 days after birth. Examination results: intestinal bloating. Previous treatment and effectiveness.
Answer
Based on the information you provided, I believe your baby may be experiencing stomach bloating due to indigestion. Since infants’ gastrointestinal function is not yet fully developed, indigestion is more common. I suggest giving your baby oral probiotics and intestinal health supplements, drinking plenty of water, feeding breast milk in small, frequent meals, and avoiding overeating. The mother should consume light, easy-to-digest foods and avoid cold, hard, spicy, and other stimulating foods. You can also use a warm compress to help relieve your baby’s abdominal discomfort, but be sure to avoid burns. Also, ensure the baby stays warm and avoid getting a chill, especially in the abdominal area. I hope my answer is helpful.
