Patient's question:
My child doesn't cry at night for milk, and I endure it until about 6:00 when he starts shouting for it again. One feeding is 210ml, but after finishing, he himself pushes the milk out and vomits quite a bit. Sometimes it's okay.Doctor's answer:
According to your description, the baby's stomach capacity is small, and the tension of the esophageal muscles is low, making it easy for food to be vomited out. It could also be caused by colds, constipation, and other factors. Incorrect feeding posture, feeding too quickly, or introducing complementary foods too early are also reasons that can lead to severe vomiting in babies. After feeding, it is recommended to hold the baby upright and pat their back for a while, then place the baby on their right side to sleep, which is beneficial for digestion. If the baby vomits repeatedly every time they are fed, pay attention to whether the child has a fever, how their bowel movements are, their mental state, and whether any changes have occurred.
