Question
My child has been feeling sick and vomiting recently. Since they are still breastfeeding, what can I eat to help them stop vomiting?
Answer
Actually, when a baby has diarrhea, it’s best to reduce breastfeeding as much as possible to prevent overeating and excessive bowel movements. However, the mother can eat some specific foods to help the baby stop diarrhea, such as apples (both raw and cooked), yogurt (which contains probiotics to maintain intestinal balance), rice porridge, protein powder, and carrots. At the same time, patients should develop good living habits, maintain regular schedules, avoid smoking and drinking, and increase daily exercise to boost immunity and prevent recurrence of the condition.
