Several methods to prevent nausea and vomiting in babies:
Breastfeeding can prevent nausea and vomiting, especially in the first few months after birth. Breast milk is the most suitable for infants' nutritional needs and digestive capacity. Breast milk contains various digestive enzymes and antibodies that infants require, with nutrients well-suited for absorption and assimilation. It can neutralize enterotoxins from Escherichia coli and help prevent infections caused by the bacterium. Compared to cow's milk and breast milk substitutes, it is far superior. Breastfeeding should be encouraged unless the mother has tuberculosis, heart disease, kidney disease, or other chronic conditions. Proper feeding methods should be followed, ensuring regular breastfeeding and avoiding weaning during summer or when the child is ill.
Breastfeeding can prevent infant diarrhea.
Provide supplementary foods on time to prevent adverse effects and replenish fluids to prevent dehydration. Most cases of infant diarrhea begin suddenly, and frequent nausea and vomiting can lead to rapid loss of fluids and nutrients, causing acute dehydration. At home, parents can mix 20 grams of sugar (two level teaspoons) and 1.75 grams of salt (half a bottle cap) into 500 milliliters of hot water (or rice water) to prepare an oral rehydration solution.
