The last few days, my nearly 5 month old DD seems to have been farting a
lot, especiaally when she wakes during the night. She squirms as though
her tummy is uncomfortable (though this is just my interpretation) then
lets one off.

Is it most likely something I've eaten? I can't think of anything I've
eaten recently that might have caused it. Or could it be some stomach bug
she's got? Or is it nothing to worry about?

Have you eaten pears? Even if you haven't eaten anything "clasically"
gassy such as beans or cauliflower, innocent-looking stuff such as pears
could be the culprit. A friend of mine ate a pear and her daughter was
gassy all day after that!

Or sometimes kids are just gassy and it's nothing to do with you.


No, not pears (I don't like them) :-)
