Patient's question:

The baby is now 5 and a half months old. Every time they drink formula, they vomit on the first sip. They never vomit when drinking water. This has been going on for 3 months. Usually, they vomit 3 or 4 times a month, and it's all vomited out.

Doctor's answer:

Nursing or spitting up is a common phenomenon in newborns and infants. In most cases, spitting up is physiological, but more severe spitting up may indicate digestive dysfunction or intestinal obstruction. Spitting up usually occurs in small infants, and it can be divided into two types: physiological or non-organic spitting up. Examples include feeding too quickly, swallowing air, or incorrect holding posture. Additionally, gastrointestinal allergies can also cause spitting up. For mild cases, it is recommended to closely monitor the situation. We hope this information helps you. Wishing you a pleasant life.
