How to deal with fast breast milk flow?

Patient's question:

Breastfeeding, milk flow is too fast, the baby is choked to cry every time while feeding, and vomits every time after choking. What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, I'm glad to help you with your question: The flow of breast milk is usually controlled by placing the index and middle fingers on the top and bottom of the nipple, respectively, and gently pinching them. Additionally, after feeding, try to hold the baby upright on your shoulder and gently pat his back until he burps. When feeding, hold the baby in a semi-recumbent position, make him upright after feeding, gently pat his back, and avoid excessive movement of the child to prevent spitting up and choking. I hope this helps.
