Parents have to take the baby to the hospital quickly. In fact, neonatal pneumonia will have the phenomenon of spitting bubbles, but it does not mean that spitting bubbles will definitely cause pneumonia.

Relatively shallow, the tongue and swallowing ability are immature, so small babies often drool and blow bubbles. 2. When deciduous teeth erupt, the baby's first deciduous tooth usually grows in 4-11 months, and usually 20 deciduous teeth will grow at about 2 years old. At the stage of deciduous teeth eruption, most children will have a decrease in appetite, increase in spit bubbles and drooling, and even some babies will show irritability because of discomfort. At this time, parents can prepare a molar stick or teether for the baby to relieve the discomfort of the gums. At the same time, in order to prevent saliva from irritating the child's skin, it is necessary to wipe the baby more and apply more moisturizing cream. 3. The baby is playful and loves to spit bubbles This means that the baby is playing with bubbles.

Encourage your baby to cough to get rid of phlegm. Give plenty of fluids: children who have added complementary foods can be fed a small amount of water; children under 6 months can increase the frequency of breastfeeding, but each feeding should not be too much, feeding small and multiple times; avoid squeezing the child's stomach, and Burp properly to speed up gastric emptying to avoid gastroesophageal reflux. Feed your child nutritious food: Some parents think that their child is sick and should eat light food.

Open windows frequently to ventilate and maintain indoor humidity: Parents should open windows frequently to allow indoor air circulation. If the air is dry, you can buy a humidifier to ensure that the indoor humidity is maintained at about 50%-60%, which will help the child's recovery.
