This thread brought me back to the days when my wife handed over our son and asked me to "fart" the baby. I accidently came upon a procedure that worked on both of my sons when they had gas as infants. I beacame quite a show for the family to see!

I would sit on a chair with my legs together and put my son on his back on top of my thighs with his legs facing me. I would hold his legs and roll them towards his chest, almost like he was doing a reverse ab crunch. Just as his butt would raise, out came the gas! I'd wait a few minutes and repeated the routine until empty.

Sounds funny but give it a try, it may work for you too.

Yep...that works great. It's like gently squeezing out the last bit o' toothpaste out. My 2 y/o never really had bad gas problems, but my son did. As a matter of fact, he still does...but what 15 y/o doesn't?
