Severe spitting up of baby

Today's babies are the treasures of the whole family from the moment they are born, and everyone wants to give them the best. However, there will be more or less some problems on the road to growth. For example, the phenomenon of baby spitting up is a headache for many parents. One of the main reasons for children spitting up is that the stomach function is underdeveloped, and it cannot fully consume and absorb milk, which will cause milk to be vomited out of the stomach. Parents must pay attention to the problem of baby spitting up.

The mechanisms of spitting up and vomiting in babies are the same, both of which are caused by gastrointestinal spasm caused by gastrointestinal reverse peristalsis. Milk usually comes out from the nose, which often causes choking and coughing in children. In severe cases, it may be life-threatening. Let's learn about the symptoms of spitting up and how to treat baby spitting up.

Vomiting in children, especially in newborns, is mostly caused by improper feeding. If the baby is not fed at regular times, sometimes he eats too much and sometimes not enough, the stomach movement will lack regularity; if the baby cries before and after feeding, or the nipple hole is too large, a lot of air will be inhaled when feeding, and when the air overflows from the stomach, the milk will be brought out, causing vomiting. Therefore, if a child vomits, you should first look for the cause in the feeding method. If a problem is found and the child stops vomiting after timely correction, it means that the vomiting is caused by improper feeding. If you still vomit, you should first consider whether there is any abnormality in the digestive tract. The most common abnormality is gastric torsion, which means that the stomach "pocket" is turned upside down, with the bottom facing up and the mouth facing down. In the hospital, let the child swallow a mouthful of contrast agent, and this phenomenon can be clearly seen under X-ray fluoroscopy. The treatment method is very simple. Do not let the child lie down when feeding, let him stand. After a period of time, the twisted stomach will gradually return to its normal position and the vomiting will stop.

The best way to solve spitting up is to help the baby burp

Try to hold your baby up to feed, so that the baby's body is tilted at about 45 degrees.

2 Do not change the holding position immediately after feeding, and let the baby burp, which will not easily cause vomiting.

3 Babies who use pacifiers: Be sure to choose the most suitable pacifier hole. If it is too small, it is easy for the baby to inhale air; if it is too large, it is easy for the baby to choke and cause severe coughing. Both may cause vomiting.

4 If you are feeding your baby while lying down, do not let your baby lie on his back immediately after feeding. Instead, let him lie on his side for a while, and then change to lying on his back.

After reading the above introduction, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of baby spitting up. When feeding the baby, you must master certain skills and not be too rough. When you find spitting up, you must pay attention to it. Mothers should also pay attention to their diet during breastfeeding and avoid spicy and cold foods, otherwise it will affect the quality of milk and indirectly cause the baby to spit up.
