Question
A newborn baby born three days ago started vomiting coffee-colored material on the way home and is now not eating much. They were treated in a hospital incubator for one day in the past. How should this be handled?
Answer
Vomiting coffee-colored material may be caused by physiological dry heaves, which are common in infants. It is recommended to gently pat the baby’s back during dry heaves to relieve the symptoms. This is the suggestion for the question, hoping it helps you, and wishing you health.
