Accumulation of food in babies is a common phenomenon, and some babies may experience coughing. Always coughing is very bad for the baby's throat, and over time it can easily lead to pneumonia. I heard that you can use a hot water bottle to warm your baby's stomach, which will be better. Can a baby's cough caused by food accumulation be warmed up with a hot water bottle?
If the baby's cough is caused by food accumulation, a hot water bottle can be used to warm the stomach. A hot water bottle can warm the baby's stomach and relieve coughing. After the baby wakes up, they can use a hot water bottle to place it on their stomach, and their cough will be much better. Before warming your stomach with a hot water bottle, feel the temperature of the hot water bottle with your hands first. The temperature of the hot water bottle should not be too high, otherwise it will burn the baby's skin.
When a child coughs, in addition to warming their stomach with a hot water bottle, there is also a small amount of plain water to drink for the baby. You can hydrate your baby before they cough, or you can choose to hydrate your baby after they cough. But parents should never hydrate their babies when they cough. Babies can easily choke while coughing and replenishing fluids.
Don't feed your baby too much on a regular basis, as their digestive system is limited. Eating a lot of food to the baby can cause their digestive system to not absorb it, leading to food accumulation. If your baby's cough is always not good, take them to the hospital for treatment as soon as possible.
