Hi doctor,
Is it normal for one week old baby to pass a lot of gas ?
He is not able to sleep due to the discomfort.
Does anything I have to modify in my diet as I'm breastfeeding him?

It's normal, coliza drops can be given 0.5 ml 2 times aday for few days.
For mother you see that you don't have chana, rajma, chole.
Moong can be taken.
Even watermelon can cause gas, so avoid it
