The main causes of regurgitation in infants
Immaturity of the digestive organs is the root cause of this phenomenon. All children regurgitate, but artificers face this problem much more often, since at artificial feeding times the number of provoking factors such as:
- Binge eating. Moms do not always consider that the appetite of crumbs and its need for food can vary depending on the time of day, well-being and other circumstances and offer the baby the same amount of the mixture.
- Incorrectly selected mixture. Most parents choose a mixture of baby, relying on the advice of pediatricians. However, do not forget that every kid is individual, so exclude the possibility that the proposed product simply does not suit the child, in any case not.
- Ingestion of air. Through a large opening in the nipple, a large amount of air can enter the stomach into the stomach. Therefore, such a children's equipment for feeding, like a nipple and a bottle, should be equipped with an anti - bullet system .
- Increased gas production and constipation. Poor peristalsis and accumulated gaziky prevent the food from moving to the intestines, because of this, the baby can regurgitate quite often.
- Cigarette smoke. Breathing him, the baby experiences a spasm of the esophagus, which, in turn, leads to a partial ejection of the contents of the stomach.
Also, highlighting the topic of why a child often burps after feeding a mixture, it is important to note that sometimes the cause of an event is of an organic nature. So, a crumb can have:
- too narrow a part of the esophagus, passing into the stomach;
- underdeveloped lower esophageal sphincter;
- narrow passage to the duodenum;
- hernia of the diaphragm and other congenital anomalies.
In addition, mothers, concerned about the question of why a child, 1-2 hours after feeding a mixture spits a fountain with water or cottage cheese, pediatricians recommend turning to a neurologist. Since the cause of this can be diseases of the nervous system.
