Whether excitement, fear or joy, emotions often have a direct effect on digestion. No wonder we talk about gut feelings: The gut is closely connected to the brain via millions of nerve fibers. It reacts to everything that children experience and lets us know when things are getting too much.   <\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb90948 ik-w-text e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"bb90948\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-647d8aa elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"647d8aa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">When feelings hit the stomach<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fd71d51 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fd71d51\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<p>Whether joy, excitement or fear &#8211; every emotion triggers small chain reactions in the body. If your children are rather sensitive, they can react strongly to such internal signals. They sense every conflict, every change. So more often than many parents suspect, emotions rather than infections can be the reason for discomfort in the stomach.   <\/p>\n\n<p>When we are stressed, our body releases stress hormones such as cortisol and adrenaline. Among other things, these change intestinal movement and blood circulation. In children, this can mean that the stomach contracts, digestion becomes sluggish or, on the contrary, runs at full speed, which can manifest itself as diarrhea, stomach ache or loss of appetite.

complain of abdominal pain without a physical cause often suffer from so-called &#8220;functional abdominal pain&#8221;. This means that the gut is medically healthy but highly sensitive, especially to stress, anxiety or pressure of expectation. Children with functional abdominal pain are often attentive, sensitive and empathetic, almost like little mood sensors. When their parents are stressed, school is demanding or things are going wrong with friends, their body senses this immediately and their gut reacts to the emotional world.   <\/p>\n\n<p>In this case, it is important to take the little ones seriously.
