Raising a baby requires constant attention to their health. Whenever any abnormal phenomena occur in the baby, it is important to actively understand the causes of these abnormalities. Because these abnormalities are likely signs of illness in the baby's body, if the mother doesn't care, it will delay the baby's condition. What are the hazards of the baby vomiting gastric juice?
Human gastric juice is a particularly acidic substance. If it flows back into a baby's esophagus, it can cause a burning sensation and damage the mucous membranes of the esophagus and mouth. Moreover, after experiencing such stimulation, babies who have experienced pain may develop a sense of aversion to eating and even experience anorexia. Therefore, when a baby experiences vomiting of gastric juice, the mother must promptly identify the cause and seek timely relief and treatment.
If the mother cannot determine whether the baby has symptoms of vomiting gastric juice, she can observe some of the baby's daily reactions. If the baby experiences inexplicable agitation during breastfeeding and severe vomiting after feeding, it is likely that there is vomiting of gastric juice. Because babies may experience esophageal pain and cry while breastfeeding after vomiting gastric juice.
But the mother must distinguish clearly whether the substance vomited by the baby is gastric juice or not. Many times, what babies spit out is not actually gastric juice, but saliva, phlegm, or nasal secretions. If it's these substances, then the mother doesn't have to worry, it won't affect the baby's physical health.
