Actually, taking care of a baby is a happy and tiring thing for many mothers. Happiness is being able to take care of the baby and see it grow up day by day. And what's tiring is that the process of taking care of the baby is very tiring, and the baby often has some small problems. Next, let's take a look at what's going on with the baby's tongue sticking out lately.
What's going on with the baby sticking out their tongue lately
Firstly, it may be a habit. In this case, it is necessary to regularly pay attention to helping children correct their habits.
Secondly, it may be due to the baby's slightly higher body temperature or excessive salivation. Extending the tongue can lower the oral temperature and reduce some salivation, providing a sense of comfort. Then there's no need to drink extra water specifically.
Thirdly, it is possible that the water content in the body is low and the mouth is too dry, which makes the child uncomfortable and causes the baby to frequently stick out their tongue. It is normal for children to increase their water and breastfeeding intake appropriately.
What's wrong with the baby always spitting milk
Many babies may experience vomiting after feeding, and may vomit multiple times a day. This is due to the physiological characteristics of the gastrointestinal tract in infants, such as stenosis of the pylorus in newborns, and a relatively relaxed junction between the stomach and esophagus. When the stomach is vigorously wriggling, milk in the stomach flows back from the esophagus and is expelled from the mouth to form vomiting, which is a physiological reason.
If the feeding method is improper during infant feeding, it is more likely to cause vomiting, such as inhaling too much air during feeding, overfeeding or drinking milk too quickly, which can easily lead to vomiting. At this time, it is important to actively adjust the feeding method, such as standing the baby upright after finishing milk, gently patting the baby's back, and helping the baby burp and exhale excess air from the stomach.
If you are a novice mother, it is recommended to discuss parenting methods with experienced mothers or learn about them through the internet or books, which can also help better take care of your baby. In addition, if the baby experiences some abnormal conditions, it is best to send them to the hospital for examination in a timely manner.
