Patient's question:
Baby is 11 days old, and the milk intake is not very high. Each time, they fall asleep after eating as much as they can. If they are fed a bit more, they will vomit. Today, I had my blood sugar and complete blood count checked. The blood sugar reading was 4.4, and the doctor only mentioned that the hemoglobin was high in the complete blood count but didn't say much else. What could be causing this situation?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby is young and may get tired while breastfeeding. Is the baby's vomiting normal? It is recommended to breastfeed regularly, drink more water, and carefully observe whether the baby is vomiting normally. After feeding, hold the baby upright and pat their back until they burp, then put them down. The slightly elevated hemoglobin level is not clinically significant. The above suggestions are for the question "Baby born 11 days ago, not consuming much milk." I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
