POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy11 months agoA. Pitting, or persistent swelling, in a baby's legs or body can be concerning. However, if you're referring to a baby’s behavior of frequent vomiting or spitting up after feeding, here’s how to address it:
Frequent Spitting Up or Vomiting
**1. Feeding Practices
Feed Smaller Amounts More Frequently: Offer smaller portions more often to reduce the volume of milk in the stomach at one time.
Burp the Baby: Ensure the baby is burped thoroughly during and after feeding to release trapped air.
Upright Position: Keep the baby upright for 20-30 minutes after feeding to help prevent reflux.
**2. Feeding Techniques
Check Feeding Bottles: Use bottles with slow-flow nipples to prevent the baby from gulping too much air.
Breastfeeding Adjustments: If breastfeeding, ensure the baby is latched properly to avoid swallowing excess air.
**3. Monitor for Signs
Signs of Allergies or Intolerance: Watch for signs of milk or formula intolerance, such as rash, diarrhea, or persistent discomfort.
Growth and Development: Ensure the baby is growing well and maintaining a healthy weight.
**4. Consult a Pediatrician
Persistent Issues: If spitting up is frequent and severe, or if the baby shows signs of dehydration, weight loss, or discomfort, consult a pediatrician. They can assess for conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or other underlying issues.
**5. Medication or Treatment
Medical Advice: If needed, the pediatrician may recommend medications or other treatments to manage reflux or related issues.
If you are referring to pitting edema (swelling that leaves an indentation), this is less common in infants and requires prompt medical evaluation to rule out any serious underlying conditions.
