2 weeks old baby....with frequest spit up milk

thanks for reply. I will give that med.to my baby n will get back to you.

I want to know One more thing. You said to give water to baby. I assumed that water is not necessary as she is on breastfeeding. second, she is very young. third, we live in North Europe.and it's extremely cold here. do u think she still needs water?if so then why? want to know reason.

does this med. relieve gas. as well?

it sounds wise. yes my mother told me, she gave me water when I was at this age.

I started giving her water in between the feed. a teaspoon after every feed.

I have ordered aethusia med. as it is not available in my country. so I hv to order it online. may be I will get it until Monday.


my daughter was spitting up milk before ....like spilling from mouth. but now for last two days she is having forceful vomiting episodes after every feed along with spilling or regurgitation of milk.

aethusa is not available in pills form. can we use liquid instead of pills?

hi doc

i gave my daughter aethusa cyn 30 c as u said. here are her symptoms now.


she has started vomiting out plain milk as well. Before this medicine, she was vomiting out crudled milk.

her appetite is much reduced. she only breast feed for 3-5 minutes. and sleeps a lot. her urine out put has reduced from 6-8 wet diapers to 3-4wet diapers.

she draws her legs up more often. it seems she has pain in her tummy. she was having 3-4 poops a day. but now its only 1-2....although poops are normal consistancy but she exerts much pressure to defecate.

she is extreamly gasy as soon as few drops of milk get inside. I wonder, if i am feeding her air instead of milk. After that she want to latch but unable, due to pain and bloating.

waiting for reply

ok....i will wait.....when ur child is not well.its hard for parents to see their child in such a misery.

when i was waiting for your reply. i noticed few more things. her sucking power is not strong as it was before. but thought its just my thinking. Here in my country, there are lactatin centers. today i went there n two other breast feeding moms gave their breast to her n they also said she has poor sucking power. then i went to dr who examined her mouth n tounge n found every thing normal. my basic concern to be there was, i am having less milk supply. It was good untill last week. They said because her appitite is much reduced and that is the cause of lower milk production. i do not want to start formula. is there any medicine to increase milk production.(i have started pumping out brest milk to increase milk production).

i gave her sepia . today was the third day. will update u after 4 days

Hi

it has been 7 days from the strt of sepia. here is update.

vomiting or spitt up much reduced. she is still vomiting out but now its once or twice a day.

she is somedays passes poops 3-4 times and some days only once a day. poops are painful for her. she exerts much force and her face becomes blue. poops are very soft.

she is very much gassy. she becomes blue and cried a lot when passes gas.

she has acne like red rash with some papules all over the face. chest forearms outer side of thighs and legs. this kind of rash is increasing day by day.

at niğht around 8 to 10 pm, she has colic pain and cried non stop. massage and warm pad on tummy gives her a bit relief. she becomes hungry at that time and want to feed but it is very painful due to colic.

thanks for reply....
for how long can i give her nux vomica?

thanks

hi doc

i gave my daughter nux vomica 1 dose.she has started to be better after 3rd day of giving nux vomica(only one dose given).

she is having stomach pain (colic) in evening hours so i do massage, warm compress and sometimes give mag phos 6x.

vomiting had been much reduced.


but now for last 5 days she is vomiting again . even if she nurse for two minutes she vomit it out straight away. then feel hunger and cries and nurse one yo two sips n vomit it out.

bowl movements vary some days she has a bowl movemwnt only once a day and some days 3-4times a day. their consistency is normal n yellow colored.

she is exclusivly breastfed. after every 1.5 hours in day and every 3rd hour night. she nurse 5 -6 minutes total in one nursing session.

for last 10 to 12 days she has cold. no fever. runny nose is much better. but when she vomits it sometimes has very little phlem light green color. no coughing. but she nurse i can heard mucous rattling in her throat. once or twice a day i also give her steam. but does hv very little effect. that is only in term of not hearing that rattling voice for sometime. but not at all on vomiting.

my daughter is 7 weeks now n i gave her nux vomica dose 16 days before.

what in %?

if u say amount of vomit then .....

because i am breastfeeding so cant tell hiw much actuall she has taken. but if we assume 120 ml at each feed as other 7 months babies r taking at each feed. then she vomits almost 50 to 60 percent at each vomit.


and as we are constantly weighing her at child clinic. two weeks before she gained 52 % weight. last week its percentage drops down to 40% weight gain in a week.

doctors here said..breastfed baby should gain 150 to 220 grams a week. last week she gained only 95 grams. her next check up is on tuesday. but i can easily guess that it would be much less as she is not wetting her diapers as she was before.

Recomended wet diapers are 4 to 6 and a dirty diaper 2 to 3. and she has only 2 - 3 wet and 1 dirty diaper a day.
