Everyone may have hiccups after eating. This is a normal physiological phenomenon and there is no need to worry too much. However, parents should still pay more attention. If the baby's hiccups last for a very long time, it will be very dangerous. Now let me tell you, what to do if the baby hiccups after eating. 1. If the hiccups and milk regurgitation are caused by "gastroesophageal reflux", you can let the baby stand upright on an adult's shoulder to pass gas after feeding, and do not let the baby lie flat within half an hour. After 4 months old, you can add rice flour or wheat flour to increase the viscosity of the milk to prevent hiccups. 2. If your baby hiccups because of an allergy to milk protein, you can use special formula milk as directed by your doctor. 3. Feed your baby in a quiet state and environment. Never feed your baby when he is extremely hungry or crying loudly. 4. The feeding posture should be correct, and avoid feeding too hastily, too quickly, too cold, or too hot. 5. When your baby hiccups, you can use toys or soft music to divert and attract the baby's attention to reduce the frequency of hiccups. 6. Let your baby take a break while drinking milk. Let your baby stand upright on your legs and gently pat his back to pass gas. Burping can help avoid continuous hiccups. 1. If the baby has abdominal bloating after feeding, he will burp when laid down flat. This is because the opening of the bottle is small, and when the baby is sucking milk, he swallows too much air due to sucking hard, causing bloating. Therefore, parents can hold the baby for a while longer after drinking milk, gently pat the baby's back, or gently massage the baby's abdomen to help expel gas, which can prevent the baby from burping and regurgitating milk. 2. Try feeding small meals frequently, or pick up your baby and pat his back after feeding to help expel gas. 3. Feeding the baby some warm water or diverting the baby's attention with interesting activities can also improve the baby's hiccups symptoms. In normal times, everyone should also pay attention to the child's diet, especially when feeding the baby, you must be careful not to be too hasty. At the same time, you should eat more nutritious food in normal times, but it is best not to eat too solid food. If the baby's hiccups cannot be reduced, you should go to the hospital in time to seek help from a doctor. |
