A warm cloth placed on a baby's belly can be soothing for gas discomfort. Warm (not hot — check temperature on the inside of your wrist) cloth helps relax abdominal muscles, allowing gas to move more easily.
Common application:
- Place baby on their back, position the warm cloth around the navel area, and leave for a few minutes.
- Then do gentle clockwise massage.
Warning: The cloth must never be scorching hot; baby skin is very sensitive. If the cloth touches bare skin, be extra careful.
This is a comfort measure, not medical treatment. If gas problems last a long time, baby is very uncomfortable, or if vomiting or fever develops, consult your pediatrician.
