Why the baby belches

One of the main reasons for concerns of mothers in the first months of life of the newborn is frequent vomiting. The problem especially becomes aggravated if the kid at the same time badly gains weight, chokes with the leaving milk and incessantly shouts after each such case. Most often the issue is resolved by itself already to six-month-old age, but prevention will help to cope with continuous vomiting earlier. It is only important to understand why it happens.

Instruction

1. Overeating. It is the most common cause of vomiting. Especially often this phenomenon is observed at the children who are on natural feeding. Just the child absorbs the bigger volume of breast milk, than it is necessary for an organism, the stomach stretches, and later with an easy emetic reflex a part eaten leaves back. At the same time at mom it seems that the kid srygnut much. To calm itself, it is enough to pour out teaspoons of cow's milk on diaper 2, and you will see that volume seems big, and actually it is only 10 ml.

2. The swallowed air (aerofagiya). Perhaps, at the child together with food air comes to a stomach – it just podsasyvat it. It occurs both when breastfeeding, and when using mixes in small bottles. Air brings discomfort to the child, there is it, as a rule, with a small amount of milk. But it is enough to win after feeding over the kid a tummy in vertical position as there will be a usual eructation, and it will become easier for the child.

3. Invagination of intestines. If the child often and plentifully belches, and emetic masses gets a greenish shade or are mixed with bile, it is an occasion to address the pediatrician. Any prevention in the form of vertical position and an otryvaniye from a breast will not help as the impassability of intestines is the most probable cause.

4. Pilorospazm. At the children belching a fountain after each feeding, most likely this diagnosis. It is all about regular spasms of muscles of the gatekeeper – the valve closing an exit from a stomach. Only the pediatrician can appoint suitable medicines, and as prevention the frequent feeding will approach in the small portions.

5. Sudden vomiting. If at the child the predisposition to vomiting is not observed, but suddenly it occurs several times, it is worth paying attention to a condition of the child. It can be a symptom of a serious disease or trauma. It is easy to mix vomiting with vomiting. A numerous exit of food at some children accompanies growth of body temperature, generally testifies to digestive tract diseases, including to infections, and often happens at concussion. If the child belches blood, it is necessary to call the ambulance urgently.
