Is the baby hiccups and dry cough due to indigestion?

Patient's question:

Baby burps and vomits after eating milk; my baby is on formula. Previous treatment and effectiveness: Has not been seen. What kind of help do you want: Check if it's poor digestion.

Doctor's answer:

The baby frequently experiences hiccups, which is a symptom caused by the baby swallowing too much air while feeding, which then impacts the diaphragm. To focus on care, I'm not sure how the baby is currently being fed. If using a bottle, it's recommended that the nipple size should be uniform and equipped with an air vent. After feeding, the bottle should be removed immediately, and appropriate digestive aid medication can also be given to the baby. The above suggestions are for the question "Are the baby's hiccups and vomiting due to poor digestion?" I hope this helps, and wish you good health!
