If a one month old baby drinks milk and has a good appetite, it will make parents very happy. However, if the baby vomits as much as they eat, it will cause malnutrition, which will have a significant impact on the digestive system and development in the long run. Therefore, it is necessary to correct it in a timely manner. So, how much does a one month old baby eat and vomit?
A one month old baby always spits milk, which is quite common, but it is important to pay attention to finding the cause. The baby's stomach is in a horizontal position, and after feeding quickly or swallowing air, the baby may vomit milk. Therefore, after the baby finishes breastfeeding, they should be picked up and placed on the adult's shoulder to pat their back until they burp. After the baby finishes breastfeeding, they should be held for a while and then placed on the bed. To prevent the baby from spitting milk, the head of the bed can be raised by 30 ℃ in a sloping shape, and the upper body can be raised to lie on the side, which can reduce spitting and prevent gastroesophageal reflux.
Some babies may experience intestinal dysfunction due to intestinal infections, which can lead to fever and vomiting after feeding. At this time, it is necessary to give the baby a small amount of food multiple times, not too much at once. If the baby does not vomit after eating a small amount, they can continue to be fed in this way, while also taking medication to regulate their digestive system. If the baby still frequently vomits after eating, it is necessary to pause feeding, seek medical attention promptly, receive intravenous fluids, and wait for the baby's intestinal function to recover before feeding in small amounts multiple times.
If the baby vomits milk seriously, pay attention to finding the reasons, such as lactose intolerance, milk protein allergy, dyspepsia, cold, etc., and pay attention to the baby's weight growth. If the baby does not reach the standard, there may be infectious diseases, such as sepsis or hypothyroidism, etc., you should go to the hospital in time.
