Due to incomplete gastrointestinal development, infants may have weaker digestive function. Once parents adopt the wrong feeding method, it is easy for babies to experience vomiting and choking. Especially when feeding medication to infants, parents must prevent the baby from vomiting or choking. So, what should I do if a two month old baby vomits while taking medication?
The choking and vomiting of a two-year-old baby are related to the feeding method and medication. If the taste is bitter and difficult for the baby to accept, it is easy for choking and vomiting to occur. In this case, the doctor can use other medications with similar effects but easier to accept taste, or add a few drops of syrup to the medication the baby is taking, which will make it easier for the baby to accept.
If parents use the wrong method of feeding medicine, their children may also easily choke when taking medicine. Many parents may pinch their babies' noses and administer medicine to prevent them from tasting it, which can easily cause choking and vomiting. Therefore, parents can use a dropper to slowly drip the medicine from the throat during feeding, which not only avoids wasting medicine but also prevents vomiting and choking.
If the baby has already choked on medication, parents can gently pat the baby's back to make him cough up, so that the discomfort in the throat can also be cleared. After the cough stops, they can give the baby an appropriate amount of warm water to reduce irritation to the baby's stomach and throat. After the baby has recovered, they can start feeding the medication, and be careful not to feed too much at once.
