Question
How do I treat my baby’s gastroenteritis? My baby started dry heaving around 10 am in the morning, ate congee and then vomited, couldn’t keep water down either, and by evening, even a little rice gruel caused vomiting. This happened four times in total. The hospital examination said it was enteritis. I want to know when the vomiting can stop.
Answer
Based on the above situation, if the baby is experiencing repeated dry heaving, it is important to first rule out the possibility of catching a cold. Feeding should be gradual and in small quantities, observing for any vomiting. If there is no vomiting, you can gradually increase the feeding amount and proceed with symptomatic treatment. These are suggestions for treating your baby’s enteritis, hoping they will be helpful to you. Wishing your baby a speedy recovery!
