Preventing Your Baby’s Gas and Colic Symptoms

Start Solids Slowly

It’s hard to predict how your baby will react to new foods. After several months of surviving on breast milk or formula only, solid foods can be quite a shock to a baby’s digestive system.

It’s better to start slow, trying one new food at a time so you can watch for any adverse reactions. If you try too many new things at once, it can be hard to pinpoint what is causing your baby problems.

Mixing a bit of breastmilk with purees can also be a great way to ease your baby into solid foods and provide them with the nutrients their body has been used to for so long.
