Patient's question:
The baby will be 3 years old in December, but when they get too excited while playing, they start feeling nauseous and vomiting. I don't know what the reason is. Seeking advice, thank you.Doctor's answer:
Vomiting is the most common abnormal symptom in infancy. In most cases, as the baby grows, it gradually decreases, so it can be reassuring. In some cases, it is one of the symptoms of the disease. Example 1, a 12-month-old female infant was brought to the hospital by her father, solely because the child vomited after drinking milk. The child was born at home and began trying to breastfeed 4 hours after birth. The child vomited after every feeding. In addition to milk juice, the vomit also contained mucus and a small amount of blood. Before coming to the hospital, the child had already started defecating. Based on the father's situation and the doctor's examination, it can be considered that the child swallowed some amniotic fluid and secretions from the mother's birth canal during the delivery process. These substances stimulated the gastric mucosa, causing vomiting. After the infant was washed with saline, vomiting did not occur again.
