  If a baby eats too much or inhales air into their stomach during breastfeeding, it can cause them to vomit milk. It is recommended that mothers breastfeed their babies and breastfeed them regularly to prevent choking when they overflow, as this can be very dangerous.

  After the mother finishes giving the baby milk, she picks the baby up and lets the baby lie on her shoulder with a straight back. She gently taps the baby's back from bottom to top until the baby burps. Normally, this method will cause the baby to burp and successfully breastfeed. If the baby still cannot burp after tapping for ten minutes, the mother can gently massage the baby's back to smooth the milk.

  The baby's stomach is upward, and tapping it will cause the air in the stomach to be expelled upwards. As long as the baby is standing or sitting and tapping the back, it can achieve the effect of breastfeeding. However, it should be noted that the baby is still young and the body is very weak. When breastfeeding the baby, attention must be paid to not folding the baby's waist or neck, and not letting the baby get injured.
