Question
About two weeks ago, I noticed the baby had gas, with a rumbling stomach. After giving her absorbent medicine, she started to fart a lot. Sometimes when she farted, it was accompanied by feces and vomiting, and the stools were like lumpy tofu. Lately, I’ve noticed she’s not sleeping well during her afternoon nap, often waking up and struggling, and it’s especially intense, causing her to cry. What’s going on?
Answer
I’m glad to assist you. The baby’s current symptoms are indicative of indigestive vomiting. I suggest giving her Montmorillonite powder and appropriately supplementing zinc to relieve electrolyte imbalance caused by vomiting. If the vomiting symptoms persist without improvement, it is recommended that you take the baby to the hospital for a follow-up visit promptly. In daily care, be sure to keep the baby’s abdomen warm and avoid letting her back get cold during her afternoon nap. After feeding the baby milk, hold her upright and pat her back. Wishing the baby a healthy and happy growth!
