Babies spit milk frequently because their stomachs and throats are not fully developed. The newborn's stomach is unstable when lying down, while the cardia is relatively relaxed. When adults eat, after food flows into the stomach, the cardia will contract, preventing food from flowing back.
We can try to put the baby upright on the shoulder, gently buckle the baby with the strength of the hand, and then pat the baby's upper back with the palm of your hand to make the baby burp. In order to prevent the baby from spilling and spitting milk, when using the upright position, the mother can put a small towel on her shoulder for easy cleaning. In addition, because the baby is supported upright by hands, when the baby faces himself, be careful not to cover the baby's nose and mouth to facilitate the baby's breathing. If the baby does not burp several times, consider touching it before patting it, or patting it on the other shoulder.
If you find it difficult to stand up straight, consider sitting up straight. Mother can sit and let the baby sit on her lap. The mother held the baby's head with one hand and patted the baby's upper back with the other. Prepare a small towel for the baby to prevent spitting. Sitting posture and standing posture are the same. If the baby doesn't burp after patting it several times, you can consider touching it before patting it. In addition, we can also choose to lie prone. Mother sat with her legs closed, put the baby horizontally, and let her lie on her side with her head slightly lower. A mother can hold the baby's lower body with one hand and pat the baby's upper back with the other. This posture is more suitable for younger babies. In order to prevent the baby from slipping, the baby's body should be properly fixed on the mother's thigh.
We should always pay attention to babies and let them thrive.
