A parent inquires about their 8-month-old baby’s increased cough frequency, including coughing during naptime, and worries if the condition has worsened. How was the previous treatment and its effectiveness?
Baby spitting up or dribbling milk might be due to the horizontal position of the stomach and incomplete development of the esophageal sphincter, which usually improves with age. It’s recommended to have the baby sleep in a head-up position at a 30-degree angle, and to pay attention to their breathing. If the issue persists, further examination and dietary adjustments can be considered, including increasing intake of vegetables, fruits, and fiber to promote bowel movement.
