What should I do if my baby has a cold, fever and vomiting?

Some babies have vomiting problems due to fever, so they need to pay attention to timely treatment. The reason for vomiting is due to problems with the brain nervous system, and it may also be caused by stomach discomfort caused by fever. Therefore, if vomiting occurs, you should pay attention to timely medical treatment to reduce the fever, so as to suppress vomiting. So what should babies do if they have a cold, fever and vomiting?

1. Occasional vomiting in infants

Occasional vomiting can occur for many reasons, including eating too much, too much air in the stomach, eating slightly rotten food, a cold, irritation of the throat or soft palate, teething, etc. Please try to find out the reason. If the mother is not breastfeeding, please only give the baby herbal tea with 5% glucose.

2. Gastroesophageal reflux in three-month-old infants

When the valve at the entrance of the stomach is incompletely closed, the food the baby eats will overflow into the esophagus with the peristalsis of the stomach. This is gastroesophageal reflux. In infants, symptoms include frequent spitting up or vomiting a lot, especially while breastfeeding.

3. Pylorospasm of the stomach in a three-month-old baby

Pyloric stenosis (thickening and spasm of the pyloric sphincter) usually appears after the child is three weeks old and is characterized by projectile vomiting without diarrhea or fever. Symptoms tend to worsen after a few days and severe cases may cause weight loss.

4. Simple gastrointestinal infection

Gastrointestinal infections often begin with vomiting. Sometimes, parents may feel that their children are feeling a little uncomfortable and look pale a few hours before the onset of an infection. Sometimes, diarrhea may not occur until 1 to 2 days later. Some children may vomit without diarrhea, or have a mild to severe fever and abdominal pain.

Follow the above method to reduce fever, which can effectively suppress vomiting. If the baby's vomiting does not stop, then the baby needs to pay attention to timely diagnosis. It is very likely that the high fever has caused problems with the baby's brain. Therefore, parents do not need to worry too much about this problem and make a timely fever reduction diagnosis.
