Patient's question:
Baby was born just twenty days ago, and she cries very hard every day. She stops crying as soon as the diaper (breastfeeding) is changed, but she always spits up in a gushy manner, sometimes spitting up a lot, with milk coming out of her nose and mouth. I want to consult—is it because she's changed diapers too much, or is the child sick? Additionally, the child gained six ounces in twenty days—is this normal? Shouldn't she double her weight?What kind of help is needed: Is the child spitting up due to changing diapers too much, or is the child sick? Is the child's weight gain normal? If not, what could be the cause?
Doctor's answer:
If the child is mentally normal and there are no abnormal situations recurring, weight gain is normal. Weight gain is related to the baby's constitution, and each baby's weight gain is different. If there is too much diaper changing, it may lead to vomiting milk again. When feeding, make sure the child's mouth covers the entire nipple without any gaps. After feeding, lift and lower the child gently with light force. The above advice is for the question "Baby vomiting milk and weight gain issue?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
