Patient's question:
Two weeks ago, I felt that the baby had gas, with a gurgling sound in her stomach. I gave her an anti-gas medication, and after that, she started passing gas, but it was continuous and frequent. Sometimes, the gas was accompanied by stool and vomit, which was like cottage cheese. Recently, I noticed that she doesn't sleep well during naps, often waking up suddenly and moving around a lot. She moves so intensely that she starts crying. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you. The baby is currently experiencing nausea and vomiting due to indigestion. I suggest giving the baby Montmorillonite powder and supplementing with zinc appropriately, which can alleviate the electrolyte imbalance caused by nausea and vomiting. If the symptoms persist without improvement, I recommend taking the baby to the hospital for follow-up. Pay attention to keeping the baby's abdomen warm and avoid having their back exposed to cold while napping. After the baby finishes feeding, hold them upright and gently pat their back. Wishing the little one a healthy and happy transformation!
