Best Baby Formula for Babies that Throw Up in Singapore 2022

It's normal for babies and children to vomit occasionally. Vomiting occurs when the abdominal muscles and diaphragm contract vigorously while the stomach is relaxed. This reflex action is triggered by the "vomiting center" in the brain after it has been stimulated by:

- Nerves from the stomach and intestine when the gastrointestinal tract is either irritated or swollen by an infection or blockage (as in the stomach bug). This usually lasts one to two days and isn't a sign of anything serious.
- Chemicals in the blood such as drugs
- Psychological stimuli from disturbing sights or smells
- Motion Sickness
However, if the vomiting is persistent, your child may become severely dehydrated. It can occasionally be a sign of something more serious, such as meningitis.


How do I stop my baby from vomiting after feeding?

- Avoid overfeeding. If the baby's stomach is too full, some of the contents might be pushed back out. To reduce overfeeding, feed your baby smaller amounts more frequently.

- Burp your baby frequently. Extra gas in the stomach causes gas bubbles to escape, which has a tendency to bring the rest of the stomach's contents up as well. Burp after and during meals.

- Limit active play after meals

- Hold your baby upright. Pressing on a baby's belly right after feeding may push their stomach contents out.

- Consider the formula. Frequent vomiting may serve as one of several signs that it's time to consider alternative formulas with your pediatrician.

- Give oatmeal. Only recommended for babies after 6 months old. Babies with reflux may need thicker food to order to swallow safely or reduce reflux.


What to do after baby throws up?

- Rest their stomach. Keep your baby from eating or drinking for 30 to 60 minutes after vomiting so that their stomach has time to recover.

- Give them fluids. after 3o minutes, start by giving your baby small amounts (0.5 oz or less) of fluid every 5 to 10 minutes. If your baby vomits the fluid out, wait another 30 minutes. Then start again with small amounts of fluid every 5 to 10 minutes. Use water, breast milk or a clear, noncarbonated liquid.

- Medicines. If your child has a fever, ask your pediatrician for the appropriate medication.

Top Recommended Gynaecologists in Singapore 2023

Image
Almost all modern and top gynaecologists are also obstetricians and therefore the term obstetricians & gynecologists or O&G in short. The term 'gynecologist' is often mis-spelled as 'gynocologist' by laymen. In many areas, the specialties of gynaecology and obstetrics overlap. To select a doctor, many of us rely on a single recommendation or even a random search through the search engines. Your gynecologist or women’s health specialist assists you with your pregnancy, screens you for diseases, helps you plan a family and more. And when you are pregnant, this person (other than yourself) will understand your situation and is the one to ensure two people (you and your baby) are at the best possible health. However, choosing the right obstetrician and gynecologist (O&G) for your pregnancy and also the right place to deliver your baby may not be as simple as one might think. The list below is a long list. Please read this guide

15 Best Baby Cots in Singapore 2023: Reviews and Prices

Do you know the difference between a baby crib, a co-sleeper, playpen a baby cot bed? There’s a lot to get your head around as a new parent when it comes to buying a bed for your baby. Baby Cribs vs Co-sleepers Baby cribs are useful up to six months, and offer a more secure enclosure. Some have a rocking or gliding motion that helps your baby sleep.  Co-sleepers are a type of crib with one retractable side – these let you safely sleep with your baby, without sharing the bed and covers. Once your baby is able to sit up and be more active, a baby cot is the best solution. These adjust in height for maximum use as your baby grows. Cot beds have even more use, as they can convert into a bed to see you through the toddler years too. Baby Cot vs Playpen The key difference between a baby cot and playpen is their purpose. A baby cot is a piece of furniture that is used for sleeping whereas a playpen is a secure playing area to keep the baby when the parents are occupied. A playpen may have man

10 Hypoallergenic Milk Formula Singapore 2023

Partially Hydrolyzed Formula This formula is made by breaking down the proteins in cow’s milk formula into small pieces. Hydrolyzed proteins formula require less processing to absorb, it is good option for some newborns or infants who have difficulty digesting full-size proteins or have a history of digestive problems.
