What is the cause of the baby pouring milk?

Baby milk regurgitation happens to almost every baby, and it is actually a normal phenomenon. The baby is in the newborn stage and all organs are not fully developed. At the same time, the baby's stomach is not like that of an adult and is relatively shallow. After eating, the stomach puts pressure on the stomach, causing the child to feel nauseous and then regurgitate milk. Parents don’t need to worry too much when encountering this situation. Here are some coping methods for you.

Solution:

1. Change the way milk powder is prepared

Adding cereal to your baby's regular milk or making the milk a little thicker will make reflux less likely to occur. However, milk that is too thick can easily cause gastrointestinal obstruction or diarrhea, which can also make the baby feel uncomfortable, so parents should also pay attention.

2. Burp your baby

When the baby finishes drinking milk, since the lower part of the stomach is filled with milk and the upper part is filled with air, it will cause stomach pressure, resulting in milk regurgitation and vomiting. Therefore, parents should burp their baby in time to expel the gas. As long as the pressure in the stomach is reduced, the incidence and frequency of vomiting and regurgitation of milk can naturally be reduced. If it is difficult to burp the baby, then parents should hold the baby upright and let the baby lie on their shoulders for at least 30 minutes, then raise the pillow and let the baby lie on the right side, which can effectively increase the speed of gastric emptying.

3. Lie on your side for a while after feeding.

It is not advisable to let the baby lie on his back immediately after feeding, as this can easily cause the baby to spit up milk. When spitting up milk while lying flat, milk can easily come out of the nose. At this time, if the parents do not help the baby clear the nasal cavity in time, it can easily cause the baby to be unable to breathe, causing dangerous things to happen. After feeding, the newborn should lie on its side for a while and then lie on its back.

4. Drug treatment

If there is severe vomiting or regurgitation, you should ask your doctor to prescribe some medication to stimulate gastrointestinal motility to improve the regurgitation. However, medication is usually considered as a last resort, and other solutions should be considered as the main approach.
