4 Preventative action
In addition to choosing the right nipple for your infant and ensuring that he or she latches well, there are a couple of ways you can work to prevent your infant from becoming more gassy than normal. First, you can check bottle nipples to ensure that the tips don’t have excess air in them before feeding and tilt the bottle to at least a 30-degree angle to keep too much air from flowing in. Also, be sure to position your baby so that his or her head is higher than the stomach during feeding. Finally, you can always consult your child’s pediatrician to review your baby’s diet.
