Why does my baby vomit in the middle of the night?

Parents with children at home will always be worried every day. Children have poor resistance and low immunity, so they will be troubled by diseases all the time in their daily lives. Not long ago, my friend’s baby vomited in the middle of the night. We suspected that he had eaten something bad for various reasons, but it was just a suspicion. The child suffered, and the adults worried too much. Such situations are not uncommon. So let’s talk about the reason why babies vomit in the middle of the night?

Vomiting is one of the most common symptoms when a child is sick. Vomiting not only makes the child very painful but also affects the child's eating. Parents will also be very nervous about this. Therefore, parents should learn to preliminarily judge the cause of vomiting. Among the various reasons, the most important ones are:

1. Improper feeding or eating: excessive feeding during the neonatal period, improper milk formula, swallowing a lot of air while feeding; infants and young children eat too much at one time or the food is difficult to digest.

2. Abnormal digestive function: Systemic infectious diseases. If you suffer from upper respiratory tract infection, bronchitis, pneumonia, sepsis and other diseases, you will often experience vomiting along with high fever, nausea, and loss of appetite.

3. Digestive tract infectious diseases: gastritis, enteritis, dysentery, appendicitis and other diseases, due to local stimulation can cause reflex vomiting, this is often accompanied by nausea, abdominal pain and diarrhea and other digestive system symptoms.

4. Nervous system diseases: encephalitis, meningitis, intracranial hemorrhage or tumors, craniocerebral trauma and other central nervous system diseases can also cause vomiting, which is characterized by no nausea before vomiting and projectile vomiting, but is often accompanied by other symptoms of the nervous system, such as headache, mental depression, drowsiness, and even convulsions and coma.

If the nipple hole is too small, the child will have to suck hard, which will cause air and milk to be sucked in together, and it is easy to cause vomiting; but if the nipple hole is too large, the child will easily choke when sucking and cause severe coughing. Therefore, when choosing a nipple, we must consider whether the size of the nipple hole is suitable for our children.

This is what happens when a baby vomits in the middle of the night. Parents need to pay close attention. In daily diet and daily life, parents must put the baby's health first. Today's children have obviously too low resistance, so if they are not careful, they will be infected with a disease, big or small. This not only makes the children suffer, but the parents also suffer. This is such a bad thing. It is better to learn more about the baby's health, and learn more about medical knowledge to help the baby grow up healthily.
