What can help you relax and release the pain from wind?
• Burping
• Changing your position
• Recognising the signs of wind
• Hiccupping
• Heat on the stomach
• Pressure on the area of discomfort
• Choosing different foods
• Not overloading the stomach or bowels
• Emptying the bowels.
Can you sleep when wind is bringing discomfort?
• Sometimes yes, sometimes no.
What is our innate reaction to large amounts of pain brought on by wind?
• To double over into the foetal position, often placing pressure on the area where the
pain radiates from
• To want to get away from it
• To be communicative about it.
By identifying and then responding promptly to these happenings when they occur for
newborns, we can maintain or reinstate their necessary digestive balance. Whilst each
case of Digestive Overload is different, because we are all born with the same fundamental
human biology the formula for healing is similar.
