Question
The baby is crying a lot, has poor sleep, wants to eat but doesn’t want to, and is vomiting for several days. Previous treatment and results: Not treated. Needed help: Want to ask what to do, please give suggestions.
Answer
It is common for a one-month-old baby to spit up clear fluid or regurgitate, usually not related to constipation and there’s no need to worry excessively. Babies are too small and may drink milk or water too quickly without mastering the rhythm, causing them to inhale air, which can lead to spitting up or vomiting. Here are some suggestions for resolution:
- After the baby finishes drinking milk or water, gently pat its back to expel air.
- After the baby has a bowel movement, keep the body in a natural extension position.
