Patient's question:
The baby has diarrhea, good or bad, weighs 18 pounds, does not sleep deeply, can sleep about 14 hours a day, poor appetite, and does not dare to drink formula because it has a taste. It may have been caused by a fever on January 20, 2010. The previous treatment and effectiveness were not good...Doctor's answer:
The stomach is also a common baby condition that parents often encounter when caring for their children. Based on the cause, it is divided into two categories: infectious and non-infectious. It is a clinical diagnosis syndrome characterized by nausea and vomiting, induced by multiple pathogens and multiple factors.Babies with nausea and vomiting need more nutrition. If the baby is breastfed, focus on breastfeeding. For artificially fed babies, continue with the usual feeding method and add yogurt appropriately: Yogurt has small curds, is easy to digest, can inhibit the secretion of gastrointestinal digestive enzymes, and has a bactericidal effect. It is suitable for infants and young children who frequently experience nausea and vomiting. Alternatively, you can give the baby with nausea and vomiting carrot soup: Carrots are alkaline foods and contain pectin, which helps to form stool and adhere to bacteria and toxins. It is suitable for infant diarrhea.
In summary, when caring for a baby with nausea and vomiting, follow the principle of eating small meals frequently, starting with small amounts and gradually increasing, and transitioning from liquid to thicker consistency.
