Patient's question:
The baby experiences daily episodes of dry heaving, green stools (currently, he is consuming Canadian-made Nestle for 6-month-old infants during the day and breast milk at night), poor sleep, normal urination, good spirits, normal appetite, and little weight gain.One and a half months ago, the previous treatment and its effectiveness:
Regardless of how much assistance was sought:
- What causes the dry heaving?
- What is the issue with the green stools?
Doctor's answer:
No other abnormalities, temporarily wait and see, no treatment for now. Don't worry. Additionally, it is recommended to gradually introduce rice porridge, egg custard, thin rice noodles, fish, and lean meat balls starting from the fourth month. In summary, follow the principle of gradual progression: start with small amounts, then increase, go from thin to thick, and introduce a variety of different foods. Move from simple to complex. There is no fixed pattern. As long as there is no further digestive upset, try to prevent picky eating as much as possible. However, it is generally best to serve complementary foods during mealtime at first. At other times, you can change diapers appropriately. If there is nausea or vomiting, pause the feeding. Or increase the amount if needed. Once the condition improves, gradually resume feeding in a step-by-step manner.
