Hoewever light or heavy food I give to my child, he throws up everything in the night. Can there be a particular reason? Why does he not digest in the night feed? Suresh replied. Hi!
U haven't mentioned how old ur child is, if ur kid is less then 3 months, then u may have to check his sleeping posture after taking food. U should not lay him flat on the bed, after he consumes milk, u should always put him at an angle, use a pillow to rest his head on it.

mamma replied. Most mothers make this mistake of feeding babies and putting them to sleep immediately. So, there is no scope for digesting the food. Therefore, let your child move around and play after the meal. Of course, the play element should not be too overstretched. similar mother replied. Just try to tell your doctor, all those things that you feed your child in the night. And there is bound to be something that his system does not like. Or something he is unable to digest. Or worse, he might be having some stomach infection. So, just go ahead and identify the deterrent factor. chandani replied. For all you know you might be giving too much to the child to digest. So, just check if the intake is too much to take. smita replied. I thank you for your suggestions. I will keep them in mind. I hope there are some changes in my baby. Dr Mehta replied. If the child is above one year, you can give him one fruit and some salad everyday. So, just relax and think of ways he can digest the food before sleeping.
