Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your q. Hi. My baby boy will be two months on the 19th and he s Been having problems stooling for the past 2 days and when I touch his stomach he cries. What can I do to help him stool?
Hi, This is called evening colic and is quite common in this age group. This happens when the baby sucks at the breast very fast and in eagerness to Chat Doctor.  Unless the air comes out like burping or flatus this discomfort will be there and next time check if the baby is sucking too fast and gulping in the air too. You will be more convinced. Usually, I don't advice any medicines for this as they give only temporary relief. The two best ways to relieve this distress is -1. Do not put the baby in lying position after feeding till the baby burps out the swallowed air.2. If still crying - put the baby in prone position and keep patting the back gently so that the baby passes off the flatus and gets relieved. Babies of this age may pass motion once in 10 days or 10 times a day also. As long as the baby is active and feeding well, don't worry. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
