Currently, many fresh parents find their babies vomit milk, but
they do not know why and have no effective methods to avoid it. After
seen a breastfeeding by fresh mother, I found out the crux of baby
vomiting milk, which was caused by the improper breast-feeding way.
I pointed out that during the whole feeding process, there are at least 3 points which do not meet the requirements:
First,
mother should change baby diaper first and then feed him. As soon as
mother saw her infant crying, she knew that her infant was hungry and
cannot wait to pick up and breastfeed him. After baby was full, mother
changed the diapers for baby. Baby was turned over from left to right in
bed, and when mother started to wear diaper for him, the legs and
buttocks of baby were lifted. The stomach of newborn was in a horizontal
position and the capacity of the stomach is small, its cardiac
sphincter was flabby too, and together with the disruption when changing
diapers, it is not strange that infant vomiting milk!
The right way to feed baby is that mother should change his diaper first, and then wash her hands and breastfeed him.
Secondly,
when breastfeeding baby, mother should stuff her entire nipple and the
most of areola into the mouth of baby, rather than just stuff the nipple
in. If mother uses feeding-bottle to feed him, the rubber nipple should
be full of milk to assure no air contained.
If mother only stuffs
her nipple in but without areola, or the rubber nipple is with half
milk and half of the air, when newborn sucking milk, the air can be
easily inhaled at the same time. If too much air was inhaled and mixed
with milk in the stomach, the gas would rise, belch would bring together
with the milk, the newborn would vomit milk.
Thirdly, after
feeding milk, mother cannot let her infant sleep immediately on the bed,
but should pick up him and put his head on the shoulder of mother, pats
his back gently at the same time to make the stomach gas expel from the
stomach. After baby eructs several belches, put it on the bed and let
him lie on his right side. It is not suitable to let newborn lie
horizontal because if he vomits milk, the milk will easily be inhaled
into cavity or even trachea. The light one will cause pneumonia, and the
serious one will cause respiratory tract asphyxia and death.
Actually,
infant vomiting milk is not always caused by the wrong feeding methods.
Some of the pathological factors can also lead to sick up milk, such as
stomach esophagus back-streaming, pyloric spasm, congenital
hypertrophic pyloric, digestive tract obstruction, infectious disease,
brain hemorrhage and so on.
As a result, if infant vomiting milk
is not caused by the improper feeding methods, parents should bring him
to hospital in time to find out the reason, so that infant can receive
targeted treatment as soon as possible.
