New Year is here, let's laugh together. Learn how to prevent indigestion!

Put up Spring Festival couplets, set off firecrackers, another New Year is here.

During every festival, the pediatric clinic of Guangxi Jiangbin Hospital sees a sudden increase in the number of babies with gastrointestinal diseases, most of whom come to the hospital with symptoms such as vomiting, diarrhea, loss of appetite, abdominal pain and bloating.

This has a lot to do with the baby’s bad eating habits during the holidays!

The elders' love for babies is reflected in letting them eat more. Therefore, during the Spring Festival, high-calorie foods such as fish, shrimp, meat, and eggs are indispensable in babies' diets, and babies also eat more snacks than usual.

Due to irregular eating or excessive eating, which exceeds the baby's digestive ability, it is easy for the baby to have food accumulation.

▲How can parents detect their baby’s indigestion at the first opportunity?

First of all, we need to understand what symptoms the baby will experience after indigestion.

▲How to prevent baby from overeating?

△Adjust diet structure:

Let your baby eat more easily digestible and easily absorbed food

Eat less high-calorie and high-fat foods, and control the amount of fish and meat

·Add rice and pasta appropriately, and eat a moderate amount of high-protein food to avoid adding burden to the stomach and intestines

· Eat three meals a day, don’t overeat, and control your snack intake

△ Home care:

Eat some hawthorn as a snack: Eating some hawthorn and hawthorn products can promote gastric juice secretion, eliminate greasiness, resolve internal accumulation, and stimulate appetite. It can increase appetite and help digestion. However, hawthorn slices contain more sugar and should not be consumed for a long time or in excess.

·Rubbing the navel and abdomen to aid digestion: The baby lies flat on the bed, and the parents rub the navel with the middle finger or the base of the palm. You can also put the four fingertips on the baby's abdomen and make gentle circular motions to promote intestinal peristalsis and help the baby digest.

Seeking medical treatment:

If your baby has obvious symptoms of abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhea, or fever and is in poor spirits, you should take your baby to the hospital for treatment immediately.

Most babies can heal themselves by adjusting their regular diet and lifestyle. Babies who seek medical treatment will see significant improvement in their symptoms after timely and regular treatment, and will eventually be able to heal themselves when the symptoms no longer occur.

In the Year of the Tiger, I wish all parents and children: May the Year of the Tiger bring prosperity and good health!
