Question
My newborn’s stomach gurgles, makes loud farts, and has frequent bowel movements. Sometimes, it vomits. Should I be worried?
Answer
At 22 days old, a baby’s stomach gurgles, produces loud farts, and has frequent bowel movements. Sometimes, it’s accompanied by vomiting. This is a common sign of digestive discomfort in newborns and usually doesn’t require excessive concern. You can give the baby bifidobacteria or probiotics to regulate the intestines and ensure warmth, avoiding coldness in the stomach. As the baby’s digestive system matures, these symptoms should gradually improve.
