Parents are very worried and scared when their baby has a slight physical condition, such as vomiting after catching a cold, which may make parents very worried. At this time, appropriate methods can be taken to alleviate the symptoms. What should I do if a 1-year-old baby gets cold and vomits?
1. After a baby gets cold and vomits, parents must help the baby expel the vomit, because if the vomit is not expelled, it may accidentally enter the trachea and cause coughing. For example, tapping the baby's back can be used to assist in expectoration.
2. If a 1-year-old baby vomits due to catching a cold, parents must remember to rinse their baby's mouth with warm water after the vomit is vomited. This not only keeps the baby's mouth clean and hygienic, but also makes the baby feel more comfortable.
3. Observe the characteristics of vomit. After the baby vomits, it is also necessary to observe what the baby vomits, such as color, amount, odor, etc. This can help analyze the specific cause of the baby's vomiting, and of course, seek medical attention in a timely manner.
4. Soothe the baby's emotions. A one year old baby may experience psychological reactions such as fear and vulnerability when vomiting. At this time, parents must calm the baby's emotions by hugging the baby, lightly tapping the baby's back, and other methods. As long as the parents are around, the baby will not be afraid.
5. Let the baby pay attention to rest. After the baby vomits, parents should let the baby rest and avoid the baby's abdomen getting cold. Keep warm and avoid secondary injuries.
Reminder: A one year old baby may experience vomiting after catching a cold. Taking some small remedies at home can effectively alleviate the symptoms of vomiting. For example, applying hot compress to the stomach, holding the baby upright, eating warm food, drinking plenty of warm water, etc.
