The baby in Xiaoli’s family is almost half a year old and has always liked to spit bubbles recently.
At first, Xiaoli didn't care. Until the day before yesterday, my cousin came to her house and saw the baby lying on the bed blowing bubbles. She was shocked and shouted: Xiaoli, your baby is blowing bubbles!
Xiaoli said indifferently: "Yes, the baby has been like this these days!"
Cousin looked at Xiaoli's indifferent expression, and was very anxious: The baby is like this, why are you still and okay? same? If the baby's performance continues to develop, it is likely to be pneumonia!
When she heard this, Xiaoli was shocked, she didn't dare to despise it anymore, and hurriedly took the baby to a nearby hospital.
Fortunately, after the doctor's examination, he said that everything is normal and the baby is developing well. The reason for vomiting bubbles is because of teething.
Babies vomit bubbles, most of which are caused by these reasons.
is the same as the situation of Xiaoli’s babies. Many babies vomit bubbles for a period of time when they are young.
According to research, in general, babies vomit bubbles mainly due to these reasons:
1)宝宝 Saliva secretion is faster than swallowing
Baby's salivary glands develop gradually when they are three or four months old, and they secrete more and more saliva.
At this time, the baby's swallowing ability does not develop so fast, the space in the mouth is also limited, it is unable to swallow all the saliva secreted, and the mouth cannot be put down, and the phenomenon of bubbles appears.
2) The normal development of the baby’s "oral period"
The baby is within one year of age and is in the "oral period" stage of exploring the world with his mouth.
During this period, babies like to put everything in their mouths when they get it. Therefore, tongue-out, saliva, and finger-sucking behaviors are normal.
3) The performance of the baby's teething
The baby begins to grow teeth at five or six months. The growth of the teeth will stimulate the nerves on the baby's gums, and then stimulate the salivary glands , Make it salivate.
At this time, the baby will also drool and spit bubbles.
When the baby vomits bubbles, it may be a sign of pneumonia.
Of course, my cousin sees Xiaoli’s baby vomiting bubbles. It may be a precursor to pneumonia, not out of nothing, but there is a certain basis.
Before the baby gets pneumonia, there will indeed be bubbles.
If it is pneumonia, in addition to vomiting bubbles, the baby will also be accompanied by poor mental state, dislike eating, looking gray on the face, and vomiting bubbles. is white.
How to distinguish, mainly depends on these points.
Although babies spit bubbles, there is still a difference between pneumonia spitting bubbles and normal spitting bubbles during growth and development:
1) The color of the baby's bubbles
If the baby's bubbles are transparent, there is basically no problem. If the baby's bubbles are white, you need to be careful .
2) The baby’s mental state
If the baby’s mental state looks good, it means that the baby is healthy. If the baby seems to have no energy and is still very irritable, short of breath is not regular, It may be physically uncomfortable.
3) Does the baby have appetite
If the baby eats the same as usual, You should not worry too much. If your baby can’t eat anything, you need to pay more attention.
In summary, if everything is okay, it is normal for the baby to vomit bubbles. If the baby vomits white bubbles, loses appetite and has no energy, be careful.
How to deal with the baby's bubble?
If it is a sign of pneumonia, don't hesitate to take the baby to the hospital as soon as possible. It will be better for the baby to find it early and treat it earlier.
If it is normal, it is not good that the baby's mouth is often wet.
At this time, you can use a soft tissue or handkerchief to gently wipe the baby, or bring a saliva towel to the baby, so as not to wet the clothes and make the baby feel uncomfortable .
[Mom’s Message]
When the baby is growing up, he will spit out bubbles. Don’t worry too much. Most of them are normal behaviors in the growing process.
If you find that your baby looks uncomfortable, you must take your baby to the hospital for examination in time.
When the baby is very young, he still can't speak, nor can he express his feelings. Mothers need to take care of them and observe more, so that the baby can avoid detours as he grows up.
