What to Do When Newborns Vomit and Have Bloating?

Question

The baby is less than a month old, spending most of their time eating and sleeping. We’re worried they might be hungry, so we feed them more often. Now the baby is vomiting. What should we do if newborns vomit and have bloating? Is there a problem with the digestive system?

Answer

In this situation, it is recommended that you feed the baby on time and in the correct quantity. After feeding, try to keep the baby upright and gently pat their back until they make a burping sound, then put the baby down. You can give the baby smaller, more frequent meals, and be consistent with the timing and amount. Pay attention to keeping warm and adjust the baby’s clothing according to the indoor temperature. In severe cases of vomiting, you can also apply a stomachic and digestant patch to the baby or use a warm towel to warm up the baby’s abdomen and massage in a clockwise direction.
