Why do newborns feel nauseous when eating breast milk?

Patient's question:

My baby is a premature child, and I was very worried about the child's condition from the beginning. Recently, the child has been experiencing a series of situations, and I am also very worried, afraid that the child will get worse. Why does a newborn feel nauseous when eating breast milk?

Doctor's answer:

Before feeding, the nipple should be wiped with a damp cloth. Do not overfeed the child; vomiting indicates overfeeding. During the breastfeeding period, it is crucial not to take any medication casually. It is recommended to drink appropriate amounts of water and avoid consuming too much at once. If the child is troubled by newborn diseases, the mother must take the child to seek immediate medical treatment to avoid using medication blindly to alleviate symptoms. For parents, it is essential to provide the child with enough care and attention, and to do everything possible to help the child receive timely medical treatment for the illness.
