A MONG the common Affections of infancy
~ are frequent attacks Of vomiting. One Of
the easiest things for an infant to do Is to
expel the contents of the stomach.
In the experience Of the average adult, vomit-
ing is unusual. But the healthiest of babies may
suffer frequently from this symptom.
When | use the word suffer in this con-
%nection, ! do not mean that pain Is invariably
present, because it isn't. As a matter of fact,
the youngSter throws up part Of the contents of
the stomach and then resumes its nursing as if
nothing had happened. The act Of expulsion is
without effort or apparent discomfort.
Getting the child into the wrong position, or
pressing on its stomach may cause vomiting. The
milk or other food is returned without change.
There are a number of causes. They relate
chiefly to the manner of feeding. Too rapid
