Gas is occurring because her stomach is still developing and getting used to the breast milk or formula feeds.
Rub your child's tummy with warm hands or a warm cloth, and make sure to burp after every feed.
If mixing breast and formula milk, then greenish stools is common.
If not, and stools are not watery, and your child is active and feeding well, it isn't a cause for concern.
For any further doubts, kindly book an online consultation with me.
