Have you noticed excessive mucus in preemies? This caused a trip to the doctor for Samaiyah. A trip to the pharmacist with a prescription helped with this.
Excessive mucus in preemies can cause vomiting and mucus in the stool. A lot of preemies are prone to acid reflux because their body can be underdeveloped. If you move them around very much or switch them from one side to the other fast you can cause them to spit up more often. Preemies neurological system can be slow in catching up with the rest of them and quick movements can bother them early on.
If the parents have had sinus problems or allergies then you can pretty much know your preemie will as well. Discuss this with your doctor and keep an eye out for any symptoms. Sinus and allergy problems can cause excessive mucus in preemies as well.
