How to prevent babies from spitting up after feeding

I believe that many young fathers or mothers will have a lot of feelings while taking care of their children, because it is really not easy to take care of the baby's temperature, food and drink. Take milk for example, many babies will vomit after drinking milk, which will scare parents who have no experience in taking care of children. So, today I will explain to you how to prevent your baby 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.

Now do you know some methods to prevent babies from vomiting after feeding? Especially inexperienced parents, be sure to read the instructions above carefully. Everyone knows that babies have poor adaptability to the outside world and their body resistance is not strong, so friends who have babies at home must spend a lot of time and effort to take care of their children.
