Is there any relationship between baby spitting up and milk powder? Does the baby need to change the milk powder if he spits up?

Is there a relationship between baby spitting up and milk powder? Some mothers found that their babies spit up milk after changing to milk powder. What is the reason for this? Is it because the milk powder is not suitable? In fact, there are many factors that cause baby spitting up. Let's take a look at the things that cause baby spitting up.

Is there any relationship between baby spitting up and milk powder?

If the baby spits up immediately after changing the milk powder, the process of changing the milk powder will have a certain impact on the baby's spitting up. If the baby keeps spitting up and does not start after changing the milk powder, there is a problem with the feeding method, not just the change of milk powder. Therefore, if the baby spits up only because of changing the milk powder, you need to use a scientific milk-changing method to change the milk powder, and you can't do it all at once.

First, since the craving function of babies around one year old is not yet sound, it is best not to keep changing milk powder before one year old, because each milk powder has a different formula. After changing, the baby needs some time to adapt, and the adaptation stage is likely to cause diarrhea or spitting up of milk. However, if the baby is over one year old, the digestion and absorption system will be relatively mature. At this time, the baby can switch to milk, which can ensure balanced nutrition, prevent diarrhea and spitting up of milk, and the baby can also absorb better.

Second, when mothers are helping their babies to change their milk formula, they must be careful not to do it all at once, but should do it in a gradual process. The entire process of changing the milk formula takes about two weeks before the baby can better adapt to the new formula.

The third thing mothers should pay attention to is that if the baby is in the stage of fever, diarrhea, or cold, you cannot change the milk supply. Also, you cannot change the milk supply before the baby gets vaccinations. You should change the milk supply when the baby is in good health.

Fourth, many mothers are worried about whether it will be bad to mix old and new milk powder when the baby is changing milk. In fact, when changing milk, mixing the newly bought milk powder with the original milk powder and drinking it together after stirring can better help the baby adapt to the new milk powder. But it should be noted that the amount of new milk powder added should follow the process from small to large. For example, after three days of drinking old milk powder and new milk powder in a ratio of 2:1 without any adverse reaction, and then drinking old milk powder and new milk powder in a ratio of 1:1 for three days, if there is still no adverse reaction, you can drink old milk powder and new milk powder in a ratio of 1:2 for another three days, and finally you can transition to drinking new milk powder completely. This is a gradual process of baby changing milk.

The fifth baby should change the milk by meal, and increase the feeding time every three days. The first time, change the noon feeding first. After three days, change the afternoon feeding. After another three days, change the evening feeding.

Care issues after baby spit up

Newborns are prone to spitting up milk, how to care for them?

Generally, the baby's mental state is still good after spitting up, he still has the desire to eat after spitting up, and he sleeps well. Occasionally vomiting one or two times, not frequently, is generally not a problem; but we need to pay more attention to the child's mental and physical state after spitting up. Diseases can cause frequent vomiting and reduced urine volume, which affects the child's weight gain.

Nursing: When the baby has a slight spitting up or vomiting, he will usually adjust his breathing and swallowing movements by himself, so there is no danger of aspiration into the trachea. Parents only need to closely observe his breathing and skin color. However, do not feed the baby immediately. If the vomiting is caused by overeating, reduce the amount of feeding and extend the feeding time. If the vomiting is severe, fast for 4 to 6 hours. After the vomiting is relieved, if the baby is still listless, just wants to sleep, is emotionally disturbed, can't fall asleep, has a fever, has a stomachache, etc., he may be sick and should see a doctor.
