Question
How can you improve a six-month-old baby’s gastrointestinal issues, such as hiccups, indigestion, and constipation?
Answer
Hiccups in babies are a common occurrence and are usually harmless. However, if they persist or occur frequently, they may be related to catching a cold or diet. Constipation can be associated with diet and digestive abilities. It is recommended to provide warm food and ensure the baby is well-warmed. You can try massaging, playing music, or diverting the baby’s attention to relieve hiccups. Additionally, increasing intake of foods like bananas and honey that are good for the intestines, and maintaining a proper lifestyle, can help improve gastrointestinal issues.
