What to do if your 2-year-old baby has vomiting and diarrhea

For babies, their bodies are in a critical period of growth and development, so parents must pay close attention to their daily diet and physical health. However, if the baby is ill, parents must actively seek ways to provide timely treatment. Vomiting and diarrhea is a serious disease condition that a baby may experience. So what should I do when a two-year-old baby has vomiting and diarrhea?

The most common reason for babies' vomiting and diarrhea is that they have caught a cold. Use a hot water belt to apply heat to the baby. Wrap the hot water belt in a towel and place it on the baby's belly. Remember, as long as the baby moves back and forth, it means it is too hot. At this time, take the hot water belt up and put it back on, and take it up and put it back repeatedly. Use this method to apply heat to the baby as long as he sleeps every day. At the same time, take medicine for diarrhea, and he will be better in a few days. Be careful not to scald the baby, and be careful not to let the baby eat cold food again.

First of all, if the baby's vomiting and diarrhea is caused by indigestion, reduce the amount of food he eats. You can give your baby some light and easily digestible food. You can also eat some hawthorn, apples and other fruits to help digestion.

Secondly, after the baby's vomiting symptoms are slightly relieved, you can give the baby a little water, and give it more often to prevent the baby from dehydration. You can also cook some millet porridge for the baby to drink, which is better for the baby's stomach and can supplement nutrition.

Finally, babies’ gastrointestinal systems are relatively weak, so parents must pay attention to this in normal times. Do not feed babies food that is too cold. Add complementary foods to babies gradually, do not give too much at one time, and add more types slowly until the baby’s body is fully adapted.

First of all, if your baby has a fever, don't rush to give your baby antipyretics as long as the temperature does not exceed 38.5 degrees. You can first use physical cooling methods to cool the baby. If the temperature has reached above 38.5 degrees, you must give your baby antipyretics under the guidance of a doctor.

Secondly, do not let your baby eat too greasy food, as this will aggravate the baby's indigestion, increase the burden on the stomach and intestines, and make diarrhea more serious.
