• Digestion- The food that mother eats is passed into her breast
milk, so baby essentially “consumes” this same food. Bacteria in
the baby’s intestine turns some food into gas, which then passes
out through the baby’s mouth or rear end. Formula feeding tends
to cause more gas and digestive upset for most babies
