Question
Why does my two-month-old baby vomit milk after breastfeeding?
Answer
When your baby vomits milk after breastfeeding, it may be due to feeding too quickly or the baby having a small stomach capacity. If milk is ingested too rapidly or in large amounts, the baby might start to spit up. To prevent this, gently pinch the breast while feeding to control the milk flow. If your baby begins to spit up, stop breastfeeding immediately and hold the baby upright, gently patting on the back to help expel air from the stomach. Under no circumstances should the baby be placed on their back to avoid choking. In most cases, no medication is needed for the baby; simply pay attention to the feeding method. Parents should closely monitor any changes in their baby’s symptoms and treat any diseases promptly.
