What's wrong with the child not eating every morning at the age of 3?

Patient's question:

My baby is 3 years old this year. He has never liked drinking milk. Every morning, he drinks 200ml of milk, but often vomits halfway through. Now, he doesn't want to eat anything in the morning. If I give him milk, he vomits after a while. He doesn't eat anything else either. However, he can eat well at noon and in the afternoon and even eats a lot.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this is a symptom of indigestion in the child. It is recommended to drink more water, eat small meals frequently, increase nutrition, and avoid overeating at night. If digestion is incomplete during the night, the baby will naturally have no appetite in the morning. Irregular eating habits, without fixed meal times, and extended or shortened eating periods disrupt the normal digestive rhythm of the stomach and intestines. Excessive pursuit of high nutrition, filling the child with meat, eggs, and dairy without restraint, damages the stomach and intestines, leading to indigestion. Continuous snacking keeps the mouth busy and the stomach active, causing disruptions in gastrointestinal motility and secretion.
