Gassy baby - 6 weeks old
My baby is 6 weeks old. He does potty once in 3 days and constantly stays gassy. He keeps passing farts. On day 1 & 2, farts are non smelly while on day 3 (when he does potty) he stays pretty restless and farts become too smelly.
What could be the reason for him being so much gassy ? What remedies can be taken to reduce the gas?
He is on mothers milk most of the time, but also consumes formula - around 90-120ml per day
