Question
Newborn twin baby girls, following a cesarean birth, have gained weight that didn’t meet the standard, and after supplementing with breast milk nutrition, they developed symptoms of stomach bloating. What are the possible causes and prevention methods?
Answer
Breast milk nutritional supplements are typically used for premature infants to supplement the nutrients in breast milk, as sole breastfeeding may not meet all the nutritional needs of premature infants. Proper nutrition, regular feeding schedules, and abdominal massage can help promote intestinal peristalsis and flatulence , maintaining digestive function. As long as the baby is in good spirits and has normal bowel movements, there should be no major concerns.
