What should I do if my baby keeps hiccuping at one month old?

In fact, when the baby is just born, he is the treasure in everyone's mind. When the baby shows a little discomfort, we will be very anxious. Some babies will have diarrhea at one month old, and some babies will always hiccup at one month old. At this time, many parents are anxious. In fact, everyone still needs to deal with these problems calmly. Next, let the editor introduce to you what to do if the baby always hiccups at one month old.

The baby's diaphragm is not fully developed. Once certain reasons cause the diaphragm or the chest and abdomen adjacent to the diaphragm to be stimulated, the "hiccup center" of the spinal cord will be affected, causing the baby to hiccup and be uncontrollable. Secondly, mothers can rest assured that hiccups in babies are not as uncomfortable as adults imagine. Hiccups in babies are usually self-limited and will go away after a while, and they don’t cause the discomfort that adults do. Of course, a mother would be happiest if she could stop her baby from burping. So, let’s find out what causes babies to burp. There are usually three reasons: 1. Improper care causes the baby to inhale cold air and irritate the diaphragm; 2. Improper feeding and overeating lead to indigestion. Feeding cold milk or taking medicine can stimulate the diaphragm and induce hiccups; eating too quickly or eating after crying can also cause choking and induce hiccups.

To prevent babies from burping, mothers should pay attention to their baby's feeding methods. First of all, you should avoid feeding your baby when he is crying or feeling depressed. Secondly, avoid eating too fast. When breastfeeding, if there is plenty of breast milk, you should press the nipple while breastfeeding to avoid the milk flowing out too quickly; when bottle-feeding, be careful not to make the nipple hole too large. Again, pay attention to the temperature of the food and do not let it be too cold. Finally, pay attention to how you take care of your baby and don't let your baby drink cold air. When your baby burps, don't worry. If your baby has no illness but suddenly starts hiccups, and the hiccups are strong and continuous, it is mostly caused by a cold. You can feed your baby some warm water and cover his chest and abdomen with warm clothes and blankets. If your baby burps frequently.

If the hiccups last for a long time, you can soak a little orange peel in boiling water and feed it to your baby when the water becomes warm to relieve the hiccups. If you can smell a sour and rancid smell when your baby hiccups, it is mostly caused by indigestion. You can massage your baby's chest and abdomen, or drink some hawthorn water, and the hiccups will stop. Of course, when your baby burps, you can also tease him with toys or play some soft music to divert his attention; or pat his back to reduce the frequency of burping. Hiccups can occur if the diaper is wet or the baby drinks too much milk at one time. It is best not to feed the baby when he has hiccups. Sometimes, just hugging the baby to calm him down will help.
