If your baby is choking from the nose, stop breastfeeding immediately and put your baby in a side-lying position to let the milk out of the nose.
When a baby chokes on his nose, parents should stop breastfeeding immediately to prevent more serious choking. After stopping breastfeeding, parents should quickly adjust the baby’s position, so that the baby is in the side-lying position, which is conducive to the flow of milk out of the nasal cavity. After the milk flows out, wipe the milk clean. Then hold the baby upright and burp gently to prevent further choking.
Since the baby’s stomach is horizontal and has a small capacity, and the pancreatic sphincter is relaxed, choking can easily occur after feeding. Parents should not let the child eat too fast during breastfeeding, otherwise choking will easily occur.
If the baby’s nose chokes on milk, the milk may enter the trachea as well as the bronchial tubes, inducing the development of pneumonia. If your child develops fever and cough after drinking milk, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.
