Question

Newborns often vomit after feeding, sometimes with severe cases where their faces are covered in milk. How can this be treated and prevented?

Answer

After feeding, hold the baby upright and gently pat their back to help expel gas from the stomach, reducing the likelihood of vomiting. Additionally, pay attention to the frequency and amount of feeding to avoid overfeeding and rapid feeding, which can also help reduce vomiting. If the problem persists or worsens, it is recommended to seek professional medical assistance.
