Patient's question:
The baby has been spitting up since birth while feeding, which was initially thought to be just spitting up. However, in recent days, the spitting up has become more severe, sometimes even spitting out large amounts after feeding and burping. Asking other mothers who have had babies before, they say this is normal spitting up. What kind of help is needed: What are the reasons for spitting up in newborns?Doctor's answer:
Nursing bottle feeding is a normal physiological phenomenon, which is related to the anatomical and physiological characteristics of newborns as well as feeding methods. Therefore, as long as the child sleeps peacefully, does not frequently cry, and shows strong appetite for feeding, no special treatment is needed. After the vomiting is relieved, if the baby still shows symptoms such as lethargy, wanting only to sleep, restlessness, difficulty falling asleep, fever, or abdominal distension, it may indicate illness and a doctor should be consulted. The frequency of nursing bottle feeding will gradually decrease, and it usually stops by the age of seven or eight months.Possible causes of vomiting:
