What's the reason for vomiting milk powder

summary

An old colleague of our same department just gave birth to a baby last month. Because she is a very old woman, she has been worrying about whether her age will affect her child's health. And she had no milk after childbirth, so the child had not drunk breast milk since birth and was always fed with milk powder. But not long ago found that the child always spit after drinking milk. So he was very frightened and didn't know whether the reason for the baby's spitting was the milk problem or the child's own weakness. I'd like to explain the reasons for this situation.

What's the reason for vomiting milk powder

First: in fact, baby spitting is still a relatively common phenomenon. Some new mothers will confuse the two phenomena of spitting milk and breast milk. Milk and spitting are very common in newborn infants. The reason why newborn infants spit milk is that their stomach and throat are not fully developed.

Second: in addition, the incorrect feeding posture can also cause the baby to spit milk, because the baby's stomach is not as mature as the adult, so it is not like the adult's stomach is vertical downward, it is horizontal, so it has small capacity and less food storage. If the feeding posture is not correct, it will be easy for the baby to spit.

Third: of course, there is a part of the reason is indeed because the baby's gastrointestinal tract disease problems caused by vomiting, but this situation is still relatively rare, the vast majority of the cases are because the baby's stomach is not mature, feeding posture is not correct.

matters needing attention

First, don't worry too much. After feeding, don't put the baby down immediately. You should erect the baby and pat the burp for about 2 to 3 minutes each time, which can alleviate the problem of baby spitting. Too much breast-feeding will easily cause vomiting, so you can pay more attention in the process of breast-feeding.
