Do not breastfeed your baby immediately after spitting up. Continuing to breastfeed may aggravate the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and lead to severe vomiting. At this point, timely measures should be taken to relieve spitting up.
As your baby’s gastrointestinal function is not well developed, when spitting up occurs, stop feeding to prevent another vomiting due to the rapid contraction of the gastrointestinal tract caused by the ingestion of a large dose of milk into the gastrointestinal tract. Frequent vomiting can easily lead to dehydration in babies.
You can make your baby vomit out too much air in the stomach and choked milk by patting his back. Afterwards, rub your hands together and massage your baby’s abdomen clockwise to promote gastrointestinal motility and prevent further vomiting. Don’t let your baby eat too fast or too quickly when he or she is breastfeeding, but usually take small meals and pay attention to the speed of eating.
If the measures taken after the spitting up is still aggravated, we should go to the hospital in time to clarify the cause of spitting up, targeted treatment and therapy.
