Question
My baby, who is over two months old, has been exclusively breastfed. Lately, the baby often sucks on their fingers, but according to the usual feeding amount, I think the child should be full. What could be the reason? The baby has also caught a cold recently; is this related? The baby always vomits after feeding; why is that?
Answer
Vomiting and thumb-sucking after breastfeeding in babies are normal behaviors. Pay attention to nutrition digestion and calcium supplementation, and symptomatic treatment can be provided. You can take oral calcium and alpha-calcidol capsules for symptomatic treatment, get plenty of sunlight, and supplement zinc. Keep the baby’s hands clean, allow the baby to suck on their fingers, as this will not affect the baby’s health. These are the suggestions for this question; I hope they are helpful to you, and wish you health.
