After which he is tired and sleeps.i m worried as his stomach remains empty after so much of vomiting. please help me and my son. My son is on mixed feed. N i m non vegetarian.does it have something with my diet? Please help.
Let me mention that breast milk is the best food for a baby and there can be no alternatives for the same. Most formula milks are cow milk based and hence difficult to digest. Since you mention that the child is on mixed feeds, it is likely that the vomiting is occurring in response to the supplemental feeds and not really to the breastfeeds. Often child Chat Doctor.  In case of cold, such regurgitation tendency often increases. Giving the child Coastal suspension 0.5 ml thrice daily before feeds should help in reducing such episodes. The other thing to be done is to try to increase breastfeeding as much as possible as compared to the supplemental feeds. In case the vomiting still does not subside, please take the child to a doctor who can evaluate for presence of pyloric stenosis which may also be the cause of such symptoms. About your own feeding, remember that you are feeding for two persons and not one. Just take a healthy diet in increased amount and things should be fine. Animal proteins are essential and can be taken in the form of milk, curd or cheese.
