Question
The baby is about to turn 1 year and 5 months old. Could it be that the baby ate too much greasy and rich food today, and just now vomited everything they had eaten? After that, they wanted to vomit again but couldn’t, and it hurt so much they fell asleep. They even had a dry heave while sleeping. What should I do now?
Answer
Hello, the baby may have vomited due to overeating and damaging their stomach, or it could be an early sign of a cold leading to swollen tonsils and causing these symptoms. It’s recommended to maintain a good attitude, first measure the baby’s temperature, and check if their tonsils are swollen. If the baby has a fever, you can give them some fever-reducing medication; if it’s due to swollen tonsils, you can give them some lozenges for the throat. For stomach issues, you can apply a baby patch.
