Whether or not sleeping on your full-term baby’s back will relieve flatulence depends on the cause of your baby’s flatulence and the severity of the flatulence. It may or may not work.
If the baby swallowed more air during breastfeeding, or did not do a good job of preventing cold and warm measures, resulting in a cold abdomen caused by mild flatulence, you can let the baby sleep on his stomach, so that the abdomen is squeezed to a certain extent, to relieve the baby’s flatulence, but be careful to let the baby head to one side, to prevent suffocation.
If the baby’s flatulence is caused by more serious organic diseases, such as enteritis, intussusception, etc., and the degree of flatulence is more serious, then the baby sleeps on his stomach and can not relieve flatulence. At this time should follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment, in order to achieve the effect of treating flatulence.
It is recommended that full-term babies with flatulence, go to the hospital in a timely manner, in accordance with the doctor’s instructions for treatment, to avoid delaying the condition.
