What to do if you catch a cold and vomit? The fastest and most effective way

Babies are still very young and don’t know how to protect themselves in life, so mothers who take care of babies must have special confidence and attention to everything in their babies’ daily lives. If the baby catches a cold, he will show signs of restlessness, crying, vomiting, diarrhea, and loss of appetite. At this time, the mother must take correct measures to relieve the baby's symptoms and restore the baby's body to health as soon as possible.

What to do if your baby catches a cold and vomits

1. If your child has just caught a cold and is vomiting, try to let him rest and not eat anything to give his stomach and intestines a rest.

2. Take your temperature every half an hour.

3. If the body temperature is normal, feed water every half an hour, 30-50 ml per cup is enough, add a small amount of sugar and salt, and the water temperature should not be too cold.

4. Rest in bed as much as possible and do not change your body position frequently, otherwise it will easily cause vomiting again.

5. Symptoms will be relieved after a few hours. But try to prolong your child's fasting time and don't feed him/her as soon as the condition improves a little.
