Newborn baby is gassy, any suggestions?

Newbie here,

We had good results with fennel tea for our infants with digestive issues. It seemed to calm things down. Hope this helps

Thank you for sharing. If I understand correctly, the mother drinks the fennel tea, thus passing on the therapeutic effects to baby via milk?

Sounds like CMPA or/+ other allergy. Soy and eggs are common too though it can be anything. Mum’s gut health is important too.

I’m sure that couldn’t hurt, but we just gave little spoonfuls directly to the baby

I see, thank you. Will pass this on.

Update: the parents have since eliminated cruciferous veggies so far, and added BioGaia baby probiotic drops (Amazon product ASIN B09HV6VS38View: https://www.amazon.ca/BioGaia-Probiotic-Baby-Drops-newborns/dp/B09HV6VS38
).

Big improvement; not (yet) perfect, but definite progress.
