Gas baby??? I have my baby baby Sat neighbors. The baby is first. It was January, but he was born in October, he had the gas all the time I got it. I kept during the night while the couple could take a break. I asked the mother if she gives something for the gas, she said no. She said the dr. told him it was good for the baby to spend a lot of gas. I also noticed that when I was cleaning the bottle nipples that were rotten. I showed it to mom and she said she had no money to the nipples, but they had money to go shopping and cinema and restaurant. I refused to sit denies baby baby next unless thay came with a new bottle, they did. Was it wrong? So my questions are is the normal gas, and I was wrong to refuse to babysit tomorrow night?
Gas does not hurt a baby unless they are straining to do so and they are in pain because of it. You will know if they are in pain, they cry, pull legs and strain with their face. With regard to the nipples, it's a shame that parents are so selfish they do not provide things for their baby. It's up to you to decide if you want to continue watching. You can always go buy new things and give them the next time you see them. This class is the thing to do.
Hell yes! u were very valid, and the rotten nipples can give the child a bacterial infection, not to mention, it weakens the nipple and can break and choke the baby. This was the sum of irresponsible parents.
The gas is normal, due mainly newborns have very immature digestive system.
Tell those irresponsible parents that they should at least put the bottle in the dishwasher to clean all the necessary weeks if they are too lazy to clean.
