Question

What to Do If Baby’s Milk Sucks into the Lungs?

Answer

Spitting up is actually a form of self-protection for babies, but it’s important to adopt the correct breastfeeding method. When breastfeeding, place your feet on a small stool and hold the baby securely, using your thumb and forefinger to gently pinch the nipple while feeding to prevent the nipple from blocking the baby’s nostrils or causing coughing and vomiting due to milk flowing too quickly. Children need a balanced diet and should avoid irritating and cold foods. If a child is diagnosed with a pediatric respiratory system disease, parents should cooperate with doctors for active treatment, assist with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits.
