How to prevent your baby from vomiting after feeding

In daily life, what everyone knows is that babies drink milk, and they will be weaned when they reach a certain age, around two years old. However, during these two years of feeding, babies always have some minor problems. The most common one is that the baby vomits after feeding. Experienced parents must know what is wrong with the child, but most people still don’t understand it. Today, let’s learn how to prevent babies from vomiting after feeding.

First, don’t let your baby eat too quickly when breastfeeding. You can use a scissor-like breastfeeding method to press a few breast milk ducts, which will slow down the milk flow and prevent the baby from eating too quickly.

Second, you can stop breastfeeding and pat your baby’s back during feeding, because some babies have a lot of gas in their stomachs, which makes the baby uncomfortable and leads to vomiting a lot of milk. It is important to burp the baby after feeding. Use your hollow palm to pat the baby's back and vibrate gently, which will make the baby feel very comfortable. Some children will spit up milk 20 minutes or half an hour after feeding. Such children need to be burped one, two or even three times after feeding. Burping once may not be completely effective. If the child does not burp well and burps endlessly, the child will feel tired. The child will usually twist his body vigorously, his face will turn red, and he will use his upper limbs to exert force. If you pick up the child in time at this time, the child will usually burp loudly.

Third, when the child spit up milk, parents must turn the child's body to the side in time, so that the milk in the child's mouth can flow out from the corners of the mouth as soon as possible. If the child is lying on his back, after spitting up milk, there will be residual milk in his mouth while you are wiping it. If the child breathes at this time, it is easy for the milk to be breathed into the lungs. The child should be placed on his side and then cleaned up. There should be no harm to the child.

Fourth, observe whether the child is full. Generally speaking, when the child is breastfeeding, he will automatically stop breastfeeding and look very comfortable. In addition, his mood and state are good and he will automatically release the nipple. At this time, the child is generally full.

Fifth, observe how long it takes for the baby to feel hungry. If the baby starts to feel hungry again about two and a half to three hours after feeding, it means that the baby got enough food for the first feeding.

Mothers who have children will know that raising children is indeed a difficult and tiring task. Especially when the baby is unwell, it is a worry for parents. This requires parents to understand how to prevent their baby from feeling uncomfortable, such as understanding the above-mentioned methods of preventing their baby from vomiting after feeding, and strive to be competent parents.
