A. When your baby is experiencing vomiting, it's essential to manage their hydration and provide gentle, easy-to-digest fluids. Here are some steps to follow: 1. **Offer Small Amounts of Fluids**: Start by offering small sips of clear fluids such as oral rehydration solutions (ORS), electrolyte solutions specifically formulated for infants, or water. You can give small amounts frequently to prevent dehydration. 2. **Breast Milk or Formula**: If your baby is still breastfeeding or bottle-feeding, continue to offer breast milk or formula in smaller, more frequent feedings than usual. 3. **Avoid Dairy and Heavy Foods**: Avoid giving dairy products, spicy or heavy foods, and solid foods until vomiting subsides. Stick to light and bland options. 4. **Monitor for Signs of Dehydration**: Watch for signs such as dry mouth, fewer wet diapers than usual, crying without tears, sunken eyes, or lethargy. If you notice any signs of dehydration, contact your pediatrician immediately. 5. **Consult Your Pediatrician**: If vomiting persists, worsens, or is accompanied by other symptoms such as fever or diarrhea, consult your pediatrician for further guidance and evaluation. Remember, the key is to prevent dehydration and provide gentle nourishment to help your baby recover. Always follow your pediatrician's advice for managing vomiting in infants, especially if it persists or is severe.
