Question
What should I do if my baby is vomiting at 64 days old?
Answer
When a baby vomits, common causes include viral or bacterial infections, changes in climate or significant temperature differences that lead to increased intestinal motility. It is recommended to further check the baby’s stool routine to determine the specific cause. Treatment for infant digestive disorders can include the use of oral infant pancreatic enzyme mixtures and bismuth subsalicylate, which should be taken one hour apart. If it is an intestinal inflammation, additional treatment with infant loperamide may be necessary, along with the use of abdominal heating pads and the application of Dioscorea opposita paste to the navel. Additionally, it is important to keep the baby’s abdomen warm and to provide plenty of fluids to prevent dehydration.
