summary

Neonatal hiccup is a common phenomenon. Many parents may worry about whether it is caused by other diseases when they find it. Moreover, if the newborn often hiccups, it will affect the child's health. Generally speaking, it is normal for infants to have hiccups within a week.

The adult diaphragm is hump shaped, while the infant diaphragm is equal, so it is easy to burp.

Why does the baby always belch?

The baby always burps, which may be due to the excessive air swallowed by the baby when sucking, resulting in the phenomenon of flatulence. Therefore, the mother can hold the baby vertically after drinking the milk, let the baby's head rest on the shoulder, gently pat the upper part of the baby's back with a hollow palm, hold it vertically for half an hour, and then let the baby lie down, In order to avoid the baby always burping phenomenon.

If the mother's posture is not correct when feeding the baby, it is also easy for the baby to burp all the time, so the baby should learn to sit on the mother's thigh to drink milk when feeding, and avoid making the baby drink too fast, or the milk is too cold and too hot.

If the baby is too hungry and crying badly, it will also lead to the phenomenon that the baby always burps. Parents can give the baby a small amount of multiple meals. When the feeding is half done, let the baby have a rest, help the baby take the burp and exhaust, and then drink the rest of the milk. Only in this way can the baby's burping be improved.
