What if the baby vomits milk?
1. Clean up in time
For babies under one year old, the development of gastrointestinal function is not perfect. Spitting milk after feeding is a very common phenomenon. Parents should clean it up in time.
Step 2: Deal with choking cough
If the baby spits milk while drinking, he may choke. When choking milk occurs, he can do this:
- Don’t erect the baby in a hurry to prevent milk from entering the lungs. When slightly choking milk, side the baby’s face and then gently pat the baby’s back. When choking milk severely, let the baby lie prone on the parents’ legs and pat the baby’s back hard to let the milk flow out.
How to prevent babies from spitting milk?
-
Hiccup for 15-30 minutes after each feeding.
-
Adjust the feeding frequency and feed it several times in a small amount.
-
Half-lying or vertical breast-feeding.
-
Let the baby sleep on his back and raise his upper body to prevent suffocation.
- Changing diapers, taking a bath or other activities are carried out before feeding, and do not tease the child for a short period of time after feeding. If the child still vomits milk seriously and frequently after the above methods are followed, the child is mentally poor or the weight gain is stagnant, it is recommended to go to the hospital.
