1. What is vomiting?

In fact, vomiting and reflux are completely two different phenomena. Vomiting is the phenomenon of the stomach pushing its contents out with the participation of many muscles in the abdomen, chest and oropharynx. Usually, before vomiting, your baby will have a slightly nauseated feeling. On the other hand, although similar to vomiting, it is somewhat milder.

Furthermore, reflux often occurs suddenly without any warning, nor does it require a lot of muscle involvement such as vomiting. However, these two concepts are often combined to describe the phenomenon that food from the stomach is carried back through the esophagus and out of the mouth. This usually occurs in babies less than one year old each time they have finished eating or twisting.

Vomiting often occurs when babies have just eaten or twisted

2. How many types of vomiting are there? What causes vomiting?

There are many reasons why babies often vomit, but it can be roughly divided into two groups:

Vomiting pathology

This phenomenon occurs when the baby's digestive system has abnormalities such as intestinal inflammation, congenital obstruction or side effects of drugs or metabolic problems ... Pathological vomiting often makes the baby exhausted. , leading to abstinence. In this situation, if the vomiting lasts for a long time, it will affect the child's physical development, so mothers need to bring the baby to the doctor for treatment.

Physiological vomiting

About 60% of babies under one year old suffer from physiological vomiting, they usually do not vomit much and only vomit liquid food. Your baby is still happy after biting and ready for the next breast-feeding, at the same time he is still developing physically and mentally normally.

The reason that leads to babies often suffers from physiological problems is that in the first year, their organs are still not fully developed. At this time, the baby's stomach is still horizontal, the lower esophageal sphincter is frequently opened, the small volume of the stomach is easily overloaded.

In addition, during this period, the baby often lies down a lot, the food is mainly liquid, so it is easy to stagnate for a long time in the stomach, making the baby vomit, especially when the baby coughs, twists or sucks. Although physiological vomiting is a normal phenomenon and not too serious, if it lasts too long it will affect the health of the baby's digestive system.

3. How will diet help your baby reduce vomiting?

One of the simplest ways to reduce vomiting in babies is by changing the baby's diet. If your baby already knows how to eat, mothers need to split the baby's diet to ensure enough food is needed, while avoiding overeating leading to vomiting.

At the same time, mothers need to choose nutritious, easy-to-digest, low-fiber foods such as egg yolks, spinach, bean sprouts, spinach, sweet potatoes ... and practice feeding the baby fruit to supplement. add vitamins and minerals good for your baby. Note that if the baby vomits too much, the mother remember to give the baby plenty of water to replace the lost water. The baby's food in this case also needs to be made thicker and fed with a spoon.

If your baby is still suckling, each breastfeed should only breastfeed on one breast, the next should change to the other side. For babies who often vomit but have to suck from both sides to be enough, mothers should breastfeed the baby on the left first, then move to the right so that the milk can easily go down the stomach without reflecting out.

The mother should split the diet to reduce the gastroesophageal reflux phenomenon in the baby.

At the same time, mothers remember to watch the time when feeding the baby, should not let the baby suck for more than 20 minutes and also do not let the baby suckle in a lying position to avoid making the baby more prone to choking and reflecting. If your baby is taking a bottle, remember to cover the nipple of the bottle with milk, preventing the baby from swallowing air in the stomach. After the baby is finished feeding, the mother gently pats the back and holds the baby upright so that the baby will reduce the weight.
