A small child, especially the first one, for a mother is always a series of different discoveries. Some of them are pleasant, others are not very good. Mothers are ready for some of them, but not for others. So, for example, despite the fact that many know about colic, not everyone is ready for increased gas production in an infant. But colic is mostly a reaction to mom's nutrition. And in order to get rid of them, or at least reduce the potential harm, you need to reconsider your diet.
Instructions
Step 1
The first thing to do is to reconsider your attitude towards products. Each of them should be treated as if you are seeing him for the first time in your life. And this means that you need to eat in small portions, experimentally checking whether your child will give a reaction or not. You need to monitor the reaction for about a day. Moreover, the intolerance of this product will not necessarily be expressed in the baby's colic, it can be constipation, diarrhea or allergic reactions.
Step 2
It is imperative to exclude abundant libations - festive tables with such fatty and nutritious salads as herring under a fur coat, mimosa, etc. Such food can easily lead to problems with the belly of the baby.
Step 3
Look at your reaction to different foods as well. For example, if you develop bloating, your baby is likely to have it too.
Step 4
Also, immediately after childbirth, you will have to give up the following products: canned food, citrus fruits, sauerkraut, grapes, tomatoes, sausage, chocolate. They have a fermenting effect, which naturally leads to increased gas production both in the intestines of the mother and in the intestines of the child.
Step 5
To prevent colic in the abdomen, it is better to include in your diet vegetables (especially stewed), dairy products (kefir, cottage cheese, natural drinking yogurt), apples (green and baked), bread with bran or cereals, whole cereals, cooked not in milk, boiled meat, eggs (in moderation), broths, dry biscuits.
Step 6
Do not worry that diet is now your constant food. Firstly, with age, the baby's intestines become more mature and no longer react to food. Secondly, over time, you will learn to figure out what exactly causes bloating and colic in your child and exclude only these foods. For example, a baby is almost guaranteed to have colic if you drink kvass. This means that this drink will have to be abandoned for the period of breastfeeding.
Step 7
Also watch how the amount of the serving affects the colic formation in the child. Maybe he won't even feel anything from 2-3 grapes, but from half a kilogram he will immediately go crying.
