Patient's question:
Two weeks ago, I felt that my baby had gas, with a gurgling sound in her stomach. I gave her an anti-gas medication, and after that, she started passing gas, but it was continuous and a lot. Sometimes, the gas was mixed with stool and milk, like cottage cheese. Recently, I noticed that she doesn't sleep well during her nap, keeps waking up, and keeps struggling, to the point where she starts crying. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you. The baby is currently experiencing nausea and vomiting due to indigestion. I suggest giving the baby Montmorillonite powder and supplementing with zinc appropriately, which can alleviate the electrolyte imbalance caused by nausea and vomiting. If the symptoms persist without improvement, it is recommended to take the baby to the hospital for follow-up treatment. Pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm and avoid a cold back when napping. After the baby finishes feeding, hold the baby upright and gently pat their back. Wishing your little one a healthy and happy transformation!
