Introduction to the causes and solutions of three-month-old babies spitting up milk
As the baby grows, various problems arise, and spitting up is one of the problems that confuses many mothers, especially when the baby is three months old. Below we introduce the common causes of babies spitting up milk and corresponding solutions from four aspects.
Reason 1: The baby feeds too quickly
Many babies mouth very quickly when feeding, which will cause the baby to swallow too much gas when swallowing milk, resulting in frequent vomiting. In this case, parents should take the following solutions:
1. Control the feeding time: Each feeding should not exceed 20 minutes, and do not rush to feed the baby the next mouthful of milk before the baby has completely swallowed the milk.
2. Adjust the feeding posture: Hold the baby up during feeding and tilt his head slightly, which will help reduce air swallowing.
3. Change your baby\’s pacifier: If the above measures are ineffective, you can consider changing to a slower pacifier.
Reason 2: The baby’s digestive ability is not yet complete
The digestive ability of a three-month-old baby is not very mature yet, which is also a reason for vomiting. Parents should pay more attention to this situation.
1. Feeding time: Allow the baby to eat smaller meals more frequently, and the interval between feedings should not be too long.
2. Massage your baby: Gently massaging your baby\’s back will help promote intestinal peristalsis and speed up the digestion process.
3. According to the baby\’s condition, provide specially prepared milk powder or add slight fruit juice, and proceed under the guidance of a doctor.
Reason 3: The baby’s feeding posture is incorrect
Many babies do not adopt the correct posture when feeding, resulting in swallowing too much gas, and the result is frequent vomiting. In this case, parents should take the following solutions:
1. Adjust the feeding posture: Keep the baby\’s head as close to the breast as possible, so that the baby\’s mouth and nose are facing the breast, and the head is slightly raised to help reduce air swallowing.
2. Properly lengthen the feeding time: Give the baby enough time to feed, do not rush to change breasts, and feed each breast for 20-30 minutes.
3. Change your baby’s nipple: If the above measures are ineffective, you can consider changing your baby’s nipple to one that is suitable for your baby.
Reason 4: The baby has a cold or allergies
A baby\’s cold or allergies can also cause vomiting. For this, parents need to give medication under the guidance of a doctor, and at the same time observe the baby\’s diet and living habits.
1. Give your baby good eating and sleeping habits and set a fixed sleep time.
2. Pay attention to hygiene when eating and maintain indoor ventilation and fresh air.
3. Keep your baby\’s mood stable and don\’t give too much stimulation.
