Gas makes its way into the digestive systems of babies the every first time they drink either breast or formula milk. Some gas-producing foods, such as cruciferous vegetables and legumes which are passed on from mother to baby can cause infant gas drops which can be of little discomfort to them and this is because the baby’s immature digestive system is unable to cope effectively and still developing and learning to functionally digest.
