Why does an 11-month-old baby pass so much gas?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

In an 11-month-old, frequent gas is usually a normal part of the digestive system's maturation. At this age, as babies transition to solid foods, new nutrients can challenge the digestive system and cause gas. Additionally, swallowing air (especially while eating quickly or crying), an immature intestinal flora, and sensitivity to certain foods can increase gas production.

If there are no signs of discomfort, excessive crying, vomiting, diarrhea, or constipation beyond the gas itself, it's usually not a concern. However, if symptoms last more than 2 weeks, affect your baby's weight gain, or develop into a pattern of pain, consulting a pediatrician is recommended.
