Patient's question:
My little girl is 5 months and 20 days old, breastfed, and weighs nearly 12 pounds. She is 60 cm tall—is this normal? She currently dislikes solid food, but she cannot eat eggs. If she does, she vomits intensely within two hours, forcing everything out of her stomach, and only feels better after a nap. She doesn’t cry or fuss, but has never slept for more than an hour since birth—sometimes she sleeps for two hours, and at night, she wakes up two or three times. Sometimes she cries when she wakes up, other times she plays by herself, then nurses and falls asleep again. Should we get her tested for trace elements? She is in great spirits and has already sprouted a tiny tooth. Seeing how chubby other babies are, I’m very worried.Medical history and treatment outcomes:
No specific treatment has been administered.
Assistance needed:
Urgent.
Explanation:
I don’t know what’s wrong.
Doctor's answer:
Baby is 5 months and 20 days old, breastfed, and nearly 12 jin in weight—is this normal? The child is almost six months old, and currently, both height and weight are not fully meeting the standards, so attention should be paid to feeding. The child vomits when eating eggs, which indicates poor digestion, so avoid providing them for now.Recommendation: Take infant Jianpi San for treatment. Fish oil should also be given to aid digestion. Food should be diversified, with small and frequent meals. Additionally, long-term probiotics can be given to the child.
