Patient's question:
I don't know what's going on, but my child has been misbehaving lately and crying non-stop. Even the hospital check-up didn't help. Could you please advise on what to do if the baby always hiccups after feeding?Doctor's answer:
The lower esophageal sphincter function in infants is not yet fully developed, so vomiting may occur after feeding if there is vigorous activity or coughing. Do not overfeed each time. After feeding, it is best to have the child lie on an adult's shoulder and gently pat their back to help the air swallowed come out.For the male baby, the weight is 8.52 kg, with a range of ±0.95 kg; the length is 69 cm, with a range of ±2.3 cm; the head circumference is 43.8 cm, with a range of ±1.2 cm.
